I've looked through a lot

I've looked through a lot of scopes - made by many other manufacturers - and give this scope two thumbs up. The scope glass is crispy clean, no issues with eye box, large dials, and the scope weighs a lot less than others with this magnification!

This is my second Mk

This is my second Mk 5 and it works great. The glass is crystal clear. I love the feel of the dials, the outside texture is just aggressive enough, and the clicks are very tactile. The zoom and parallax adjustment are easy enough to manipulate, but don't move while firing, even a magnum round. Next time I need a high end optic, I'll be reaching for a Mk 5, again.

I love this scope. Everything is crisp and clear. It has excellent tracking. Easy to zero, stays zeroed. My only complaint is the side focus knob moves way too easy. That should be a bit more solid in my opinion.

Moved from the MK4 to MK5, glass is more clear at low lighting and you very visible wind direction down range. Must have for long range shooting.

Gold standard for SPR and DMR.

Got the 3. 8-18 model on a 6mm ARC rifle. Lots of range of zoom. The Mark 5HD seems to be the gold standard for SPR or DMR weapons. The reticle and glass are supper crisp. One of my favorite features are the crisp turret dials and the easy to find eye relief. An improvement I'd like to see is more diopter features for those needing corrective vision and astigmatism.

This and the 7-35 are

This and the 7-35 are the only scope I will put on a rifle I have to count on. Except my AR Police Service weapon that I have a Mark 8 1. 1-10x24 CQBS. I have them on my PRS and NRL rifles. I have 1 on each of my built 22s. Only Leupold! Leupold's are worth every effort you have to put forth to get them. Keep up the GREAT work LEUPOLD!

Zeroed to a 338 Norma,

Zeroed to a 338 Norma, T3 reticle with some dial, plus a 20MOA rail gives me more than enough elevation to distance (22mil @1800yds, 300gr SMK @2750 fps). The glass clarity edge to edge is great, sweet spot is centered, low light is adequate, but since this is a target rig, I don't plan to do much twilight shooting. Also didn't need illumination for my purposes. 7-35 is a big magnification range, most of my shots taken at 25x and below, but the upper end is totally usable if necessary. This is affordable alpha glass and you don't give up anything over higher priced options except branding. Made in USA, exceptional warranty, military-rugged provenance - you really get the entire package with this glass

Awesome optic. Conducted tracking test to 8 MILs and was spot on. Had an opportunity to do a mile shoot and optic was phenomenal. I do wish Leupold made a coyote version of their MK 5 competition turret.

An amazing optic. I'd trust

An amazing optic. I'd trust Leupold with my life any day. I have had tons of experience with the Mark 4 series as well as the new 7-35 power Mark 5HD Army mil grid. These optics are of the highest quality and clarity. The only issue I have is not with the optics as I stated I would trust them with my life. However I find it irritating the high quality scope does not come with scope caps or even stickers for that matter. I will say it does come with a premounted "low pro" throw lever which is amazing. However from my experience with Nightforce they include some extras with a throw lever and other items. With that being said, Leupold would be my go to choice for duty or real end user optic needs due to reliability, rugged build, clarity, weight and some other small features I enjoy which Leupold does however, I find it to be user preference for the other small features.

I love the scope. But I really wish that the bronze colored one like I purchased had an illumination option. The crosshairs on the PR1-Moa reticle are very fine, and I am afraid it will make shooting tough in low light situations.

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.

The 5-25x56 Mark 5HD Series Riflescope also features a high-speed throw lever for near-instant magnification changes and a dial illumination control with positive clicks and clear numerical intensity level indicators. This riflescope is not just a tool, but a game-changer for all your long-range shooting needs.
