OpticsPlanet has it listed as a new model;

Maybe they made some changes so the older version is listed as discontinued???????

Bubba, they still have the two models listed right on their own website - NikoPlex and BDC:

Returned mine. Didn't like it due to the weird/more pronouned black-hole effect compared to other scopes. Oh and the SFP BDC reticle made it hard for me to range properly since I'm used to MIL-MIL scopes.

You're the only opponent I've ever seen to this principle of scopes. 

 

There's a metric $hit-ton of long-range shooters that are converting over to BDC scopes, for the very reason of the BDC reticle. 

 

To a certain range, No Clicky.

Nikon still shows it.http://www.nikonsportoptics.com/en/Nikon-Products/Riflescopes/8495/M-308-4-16x42-BDC-800.html  Brother Jeff sez that 168 gr. hits dead to the BDC.

While I do not have the M-308, I do have the M-223 and I really like it.
