I have never actually used the Leupold CDS. However, I have used others. My problem with those is that they are for ONE muzzle velocity at ONE set of atmospheric conditions. 20F change in temp or 2000' change in altitude, you have a useless system.
I prefer a system where I can either dial or hold based on specific conditions, loads, etc. Even a BDC system, if it lines up perfect at one condition, I can recalibrate to the yardages those hash marks correspond to. With a blank vertical, kind of hard to do.
If you said you wanted to shoot to say 300 or 400 yards, then yes, the error would be small within a larger range and I would have no warnings against it.
