While I am firmly entrenched in the 19th century and no sinophile, I am impressed with what I have learned about SIG's BDX enhanced products.

BDX stands for Bullet Data eXchange and it is an electro-technology incorporated into their products which computes and provides ballistic information and solutions in the sight picture.

AR15.com has a thread about it and discussed it in this day's newsletter.

Here is a link, should you find interest:

Interesting stuff. I’ve often wondered why we don’t have more scopes with built-in rangefinders, and then of course they could add the BDX functionality to that.

His problem with scope mounting seems odd, with the inability to zero at less than 340 yards. I wonder what’s up with that.
