Clarity is amazing with great low light picture as well. The scope features are very well thought out with crisp and audible adjustment knobs.

The Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25x is hands down one of the best scopes I've used. Glass is razor-sharp, turrets are crisp and repeatable, and the build quality is second to none. Lightweight for its class and holds zero flawlessly. A serious scope for serious shooters.

Can't recommend enough. Phenomenal scope, phenomenal company, and the Tremor 3 is the best reticle!

Phenomenal scope! The glass is so clear, the body is built like a tank, and the color is perfect. I'm not saying anything new! You guys have always been known for your quality, warranty, and customer service. More importantly, great American company. This is my third Leupold and it won't be my last!

Very clear glass. Has my favorite turrets on it. Is a bit large compared to others but not overly heavy. The reticle is excellent for hold overs.

Second one i got because I was tired of switching it between rifles. That should say it all. I've gotten to used many different brands at matches or helping folks mount and zero scopes. Always choose Leupold. They are also an all American company run by good like minded people. Please keep doing things the way you have been!

Phenomenal optic just make sure for this capability of zoom DO NOT buy a 0 MOA optic mount you will top the turret out at 21 mils. 20 MOA suggested!!! I was very frustrated at myself for not knowing this. Other than that this optic is absolutely amazing!!!!

This was my fifth Mark 5HD 5-25 scope. I think the light dispersion and edge to edge clarity exceeds most other scopes at this level. When shooting 100 or 1000 yards, you need to be confident, to be an ethical hunter. Leupold eliminates the guesswork. I own several other high quality optics but prefer Leupold.

I love this and recommend it to anyone that asks me for the best optic for a SPR setup. I just wish they made the illuminated tremor reticle for the FDE tube. Will be buying a Mark 5 2-10 for my next rifle build.

The mark 5HD is truly in a class of its own. Leupold got it right with this series!

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 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.

The gold-standard for all High-end optics to follow! Great scope, highest quality. It's already been stretched out to over 1k yards on my gun!

Absolutely amazing. Bought this for a PRS build and am extremely happy. Haven't had it out past 100 yet but it is great. Clarity, FOV, etc. , all great things!!!

Really nice scope however the reticle is very small and hard to see at low power.

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.

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.
Over the years, precision shooters and hunters alike have sought out optics that offer a blend of durability, clarity, and advanced functionality. The 3.6-18x44 Mark 5HD Series Riflescope is a testament to this pursuit, delivering a high-quality, durable, accurate, reliable, and advanced optical solution for the discerning marksman.
Crafted with an ultra-lightweight design, this matte black riflescope is up to 20 ounces lighter than its competitors, making it a less burdensome addition to your long-range rifle setup. The superior edge-to-edge clarity and extreme low-light performance are enhanced by the Twilight Max HD Light Management System, which not only adds up to 30 extra minutes of shooting light but also eliminates 90% more glare-producing stray light than competitors, ensuring premium high-definition lens clarity.
The illuminated first focal plane Tremor 3 reticle is a standout feature, designed by Horus Vision with precision in mind. It utilizes a MIL-based system with a grid style that provides precise aiming points for bullet drop compensation and wind correction. The reticle magnifies along with the image, allowing for accurate range estimation across the entire magnification range, making it ideal for both tactical situations and hunting scenarios.
For those seeking reliable and tactile adjustments, the M5C3 dial offers 1/4 MOA click adjustments with three revolutions of travel, a push-button ZeroLock, and a revolution indicator, enabling you to dial in your shot with confidence. The fast-focus eyepiece ensures that the reticle comes into sharp focus swiftly, while the side focus parallax adjustment allows for quick and easy elimination of parallax error from any shooting position.
The scope's 35mm maintube provides exceptional windage and elevation adjustment travel, giving you the freedom to fine-tune your shots in challenging conditions. The robust construction is Punisher Tested, meaning each scope has endured 5,000 impacts on Leupold's recoil simulation machine, equivalent to three times the recoil of a .308 rifle, ensuring that it can withstand the rigors of the field.
Moreover, the riflescope is built to last with scratch-resistant lenses that meet extreme military standards, and it boasts absolute waterproof and fogproof integrity, ready to perform in any environmental conditions. The throw lever facilitates near-instant magnification changes, and the versatile 5:1 zoom ratio offers a broad field of view at low power and precise target identification at high power.
The dial illumination control features positive clicks and clear numerical intensity level indicators, with off positions between each setting for quick return to a preferred brightness. The illuminated front focal Tremor 3 reticle is thoughtfully designed with centralized dots at crosshair intersections, chevron MIL markers, and rapid ranging marks to enhance your shooting experience.
In summary, the 3.6-18x44 Mark 5HD Series Riflescope is an exceptional choice for those who require a scope that embodies high performance, versatility, and precision, whether for hunting or target shooting. Its advanced features and uncompromising quality make it a superior alternative to other scopes in its class.
