It’s  been a while so I can only offer a couple tidbits and even those are vague memories...

The earlier BB’s were favored for quite a while for there purpose. Small, lowish power. Complaint was often the thick reticle.  Can’t speak for changes over time but when the 3-12 came out, a smaller/ thinner reticle was part of it and maybe the whole line. 

If you are looking for range finding FT style...  all I can say is that mine was vague and the tiny bell ring certainly wasn’t enough for any precision.

 

If you are looking at a couple of know distances in your yard and want a small scope... its a good choice. That said, is it really any better than than the 3-9 or other varieties? It’s a tiny scope so it depends upon application

I have one on my Hammerli 850 for squirrels. Small, light weight, only complaint is the reticle is thick.

My aging eyes are very satisfied with a recently mounted a 3-12x32 Bugbuster on my FWB 603 a Junior.   As already stated the reticle could be thinner but I think the clarity of glass, increased magnification and side focus are an improvement over the the 3-9 Bugbuster that now rides on my Ruger 10-22.  It's an excellent light weight scope for even twice the price.

I have one on my Prod, and really like it. The reticle thickness doesn't bother me any at all.

I find that I can get a good sight picture faster with it than any of the other optics I've tried.
