Great scope, almost perfect

Great scope with very clear glass. 4/5 stars mainly because of 2 specific things: 1. The lines on the elevation turret are very difficult to tell if they are lined up with the reference line. The reference line is only half as wide as the lines on the knob so difficult to tell which 0. 1 mil I'm on. And then the reference line for the windage know is VERY far away from the actual turret. The line should've either been carried through the threads or been placed inside of the threads closer to the knob. 2. The reticle and subtensions could be just a hair thicker. Easy to see at 35x but most people use it closer to 20-25x.

The versatility and user friendliness

The versatility and user friendliness of these scopes are unmatched in my opinion. I have 2 now and plans of getting a 3rd one for my wife's new build. My biggest takeaway has been these scopes ability to grab light. Makes a huge difference on those first light, time to shoot moments.

This is an incredible optic,

This is an incredible optic, I don't want the rest of my review to take away from the performance of the optic or the capability of the reticle, in daylight. I have deducted two stars from what would otherwise be a 5 star optic because of the lack of illumination at this price point. This would be my go to scope if Leupold had included illumination or at least a more bold vertical stadia on the PR-2 reticle which allowed for some level of precision during dawn and dusk at the lower magnification ranges. In lieu of that, even an illuminated center dot would be great. For some reason, Leupold continues to make what would otherwise be phenomenal optics with limited reticle choices, especially if you are looking for an illuminated reticle.

Very clear glass, took my MK12 out to 700 yards with ease. My only complaint is the windage marker being slanted, makes it unnecesarily difficult to get an accurate windage dial. So far so good.

Arrived broken. Would not zero

Arrived broken. Would not zero with all shots falling about an inch to the right. Sent back to Leupold (having to pay shipping for an RMA was a nice touch) for repair. Scope was mounted in a different set of rings on a different rifle when returned but had the same result. Just going to cut my losses at this point and go in a different direction.

The perfect scope to keep

The perfect scope to keep my AR10 with a Proof carbon barrel light. Forgiving eye box, wide magnification range, and light. Very quick sight in measuring my miss with the MOA reticle and making adjustment. Verify group/zero, slip your zero stop, good to go. Knobs are easy to read with my older eyes and have great feel and ergonomics. I'm very satisfied with my latest Mark V.

Absolutely love this scope. This is my first 56mm scope, and what a huge difference. I wanted to see how long i could still see deer after sunset. I was able to still see a deer almost 1 hour later. The amount of light this scope let's in, is amazing. I will be purchasing another one. Keep up the great work Leupold!

Awesome scope, clear, lightweight and reliable

Excellent scope. Clear glass and packed with features in a form factor that is lighter than NF and top tier Vortex scopes of the same class. I bought this scope to put on a new rifle I was getting to take on a trip to South Africa. I wanted the illuminated reticle for low light shooting and the tremor 3 reticle for after the hunt on long range shooting adventures. This scope has been a great addition to one of my magnum rifles and an addition to all the other Leupold scopes I have on my other rifles currently.

Great glass, yes it is

Great glass, yes it is harder to see the reticle when positioned at 3. 6 but I dont think one thing takes away from the entire scope. I just turned the power up a little bit and I'll leave it at that level. Overall wonderful product and I would recommend this.

FEATURED REVIEWS

I've had them all

By Hunter

I've owned and shot 95% of your premium brands, Kahles, Nightforce, S&B, Razors, etc and none are as good as this scope. The turrets are incredible, the glass is brighter than all of the other scopes and on par with the Kahles. The glass shows more color to my eye at extreme distance 1500 yds and beyond than my Kahles which is why it replaced it on my 338 Lapua. I've never lost a zero, even on a big caliber and had first round impact repeatability with no issue. Very well thought out and very...

Amazing clarity!!!

By Sonny

I recently shot at an ELR Competition in Wyoming. We engaged targets out to 2100 yards. On that 2100 yard target I could see all of the impact marks from shooters that had previously hit the target.

What sets the 5-25x56 Mark 5HD Series Riflescope apart is its superior design and advanced features, making it a standout choice for long-range shooting enthusiasts. This matte black riflescope is significantly lighter than its competitors, weighing up to 20 ounces less, which enhances its portability and ease of use.

Experience the difference with its exceptional edge-to-edge clarity and extreme low-light performance, made possible by the Twilight Max HD Light Management System. This advanced system not only extends your shooting light by up to 30 extra minutes but also reduces glare-producing stray light by 90%, providing premium high-definition lens clarity.

The Combat Competition Hunter reticle, with its MOA-based grid, offers a large number of aiming points for long-range and extreme long-range shots. The reticle's illuminated center portion enhances low-light performance, making it ideal for various lighting conditions. The reticle magnifies along with the image, thanks to the Front Focal Plane (FFP) feature, allowing for accurate range estimation at all magnification settings.

The Mark 5HD Series Riflescope is designed with a 35mm Maintube, offering unparalleled windage and elevation adjustment travel. The M1C3 Adjustment feature provides a 1/4 MOA dial with three revolutions of travel, a push-button ZeroLock, and a revolution indicator, ensuring precise and quick adjustments.

The riflescope is equipped with a side focus parallax adjustment for fast and easy focusing from any shooting position. The fast-focus eyepiece brings the reticle into focus quickly, while the scratch-resistant lenses offer added protection. The ultra-lightweight design disperses recoil energy for unrivaled durability and performance.

Built to withstand the harshest conditions, this riflescope has been Punisher Tested, surviving 5,000 impacts on Leupold's recoil simulation machine. Its absolute waterproof and fogproof integrity ensures it's ready to perform in the field, in all conditions.

This riflescope is not just a tool, but a game-changer for all your long-range shooting needs.
