I bought the Mil-Dot reticle, I wanted to try one, and the HH seemed to be a good vehicle for that. I have a BDC on another of the Buckmasters, and I despise that reticle. I can't figure out what it would be good for, and when I talked to some Nikon engineers at the NRA Convention in 2008, they couldn't explain it, either (and didn't even know WHAT A PRAIRIE DOG WAS )
The optics DID impress me, though, and I knew I wanted another one (or two or three), I just knew that the BDC reticle wasn't in the picture any more).
