Great cartridge and I really like the how clear and crisp the Monarch series is.

It looks like it's the BDC reticle, it doesn't have the taller style target knobs like the ones I have owned before.

It's a BDC reticle, but actually came with turrets and taller caps.

Looks nice!  :tup: You'll love the RUM, I have a BDC on mine also, but am seriously considering going to the CDS setup with it.
