Modern technology can also be excellent, if you know how to use it.

I purchased a Leupold vx 3i 3.5x10x40mm scope and got the wrong model number, without the CDS feature. I bought it on Amazon. I am sure I can return it. However, is the CDS feature that good to warrant sending the scope back to get the CDS? Or is it that important? Thoughts? BTW, I am planning to hunt with the scope, as it has the increased twilight capability.
It's not for me. Fine duplex reticle is my preference.By aiming at the target. Not all BDC stuff takes up the entire view.

To each their own. A decent bdc reticle that doesn't have more than necessary works fine for me.It's not for me. Fine duplex reticle is my preference.
Honestly, I would say if you have to ask if you need it. You probably dont need it.I purchased a Leupold vx 3i 3.5x10x40mm scope and got the wrong model number, without the CDS feature.

While the tread title says "bullet drop compensator", what the OP is really talking about is the CDS, which is basically a target turret for the elevation. The scope still has a standard duplex reticle.
Mine works very well, but it's the only part of the scope I wish it didn't have. At the range it's a simple deal to turn in the minutes of angle needed and "Wah Lah" I'm centering the cross hairs on a distant target.
In use when hunting it's a very real possibility that moving thru the brush can/will/has spun the CDS dial (target turret) off of zero. I lock mine with tape. Cheesy, but it works.
I'd keep the scope without the CDS dial, if it was me.

Or just open-minded.
Why does sexual orientation/confusion have anything to do with it???
