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 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.

I really like this scope.

I really like this scope. The whole experience from ordering until using the scope has been great. A couple of small things-Both boxes the scope was shipped in were damaged. I don't know if it was negligent packing or rough handling by the carrier. Scope still works great though because I hit steel at 1,100 yards. The second thing, I love the reticle but I think you could improve it by making solid lines instead of having the free floating dot in the center. Reticle was a PR1-MIL. I still love it though! Thanks for being an awesome company!

I now have 4 of these and they are great. With mature eyes everything is clear and the reticle is easy to see on a distant target. The throw lever is fluid but enough to stay in place. The competition dial is a nice touch as the markings are large and easy to see in any light.

I believe the only scope

I believe the only scope you need for serious shooters and Hunters is a Leupold product. The continue to improve and adjust to our needs. The customer service at Leupold is second to none. Easy access to help and information. They never ever failed me. recently I purchase a new rifle and my first thought was to go to Leupold and very happy I did I purchased another Mark 5 which is the perfect fit for my rifle. The clarity is perfect it in light better than any other scope that I have ever purchased. The PR2 reticle is everything I need and without being to busy. Needless to say when you are in need go and explore the Mark 5 I promise you you will love it.

About Leupold Mark 5HD

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.

An embodiment of precision and versatility, the Mark 5HD 5-25x56mm Riflescope stands out as an exceptional choice for long-range shooters and hunters seeking high-quality, durable, and advanced optical performance. This matte black riflescope is engineered with an illuminated first focal plane PR1-MIL reticle, ensuring accurate target acquisition even in low light conditions. The robust 35mm tube and M5C3 dial enhance the scope's reliability and functionality, making it a top-tier option for serious marksmen.

The Mark 5HD's high-grade optical system boasts unparalleled light transmission, designed to excel under challenging lighting scenarios. Its superior glare reduction capability ensures a crisp, clear image even when facing harsh, direct sunlight. The scope's resolution and clarity meet the rigorous standards expected by professional guides and competitive shooters alike.

Ergonomically optimized, the Mark 5HD features intuitive tactile and audible click adjustments, with prominently displayed numbers for ease of use. The inclusion of a high-speed throw lever allows for rapid magnification changes, enabling shooters to adapt quickly to dynamic shooting situations. The scope's 5:1 zoom ratio offers a significant range of magnification, from mid-range to extended distances, providing the perfect balance between magnification and field of view.

Leupold's Custom Dial System (CDS) allows for the customization of the turret to match specific ballistics and environmental conditions, streamlining the aiming process. The innovative ZeroLock and ZeroStop systems prevent accidental adjustments and ensure a reliable return to zero, safeguarding your settings against the unexpected.

Constructed with a lightweight aluminum housing, the Mark 5HD maintains durability without unnecessary weight, contributing to its ease of handling. The Motion Sensor Technology (MST) conserves battery life by deactivating the illuminated reticle after a period of inactivity and reactivating it upon detecting motion.

The riflescope's side focus parallax adjustment ensures that the reticle remains sharp and stable across various distances. Additionally, the illuminated reticle is night vision compatible, with micro-adjustable brightness settings that cater to the sensitivity of modern night vision devices.

As with all Leupold riflescopes, the Mark 5HD is 100% waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, enduring extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and shocks without compromising the internal optics. Proudly designed, machined, and assembled in the USA, this riflescope is guaranteed to perform for life, solidifying its status as a reliable and indispensable tool for any long-range shooting endeavor.

  • Versatile 5:1 zoom ratio
