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

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.

The Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25x

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.

Second one i got because

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

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

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.

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.

Just when you thought long-range precision couldn't get any better, the Leupold 3.6-18x44 Mark 5HD Riflescope emerges as a game-changer in the world of high-stakes shooting. This high-quality, matte black scope is engineered for those who demand durability, accuracy, and advanced technology in their optics.

Crafted with an illuminated first focal plane PR1-MIL reticle, the Mark 5HD ensures rapid target acquisition even in the dimmest conditions, making it an exceptional choice for hunters and target shooters alike. The reticle's illumination is night-vision compatible, offering micro-adjustable brightness settings that seamlessly integrate with modern night vision devices.

The scope's robust M5C3 dial system provides a remarkable 30-MILs of adjustment over three revolutions with precise 0.1 MIL clicks. Visual and tactile indicators prevent disorientation, while the ZeroLock feature safeguards against inadvertent adjustments, ensuring a reliable return to zero every time.

With its versatile 5:1 zoom ratio, the Mark 5HD offers a broad magnification range from 3.6x to 18x, allowing shooters to fine-tune their view for an optimal balance between magnification and field of view. Whether engaging close-quarter targets or dialing in for long-distance shots, this riflescope adapts to any scenario.

Leupold's Professional-Grade Optical System is at the heart of the Mark 5HD, delivering unparalleled light transmission for peak performance in challenging lighting conditions. The Twilight Max HD Light Management System enhances this further, providing exceptional clarity, contrast, and resolution, while industry-leading glare reduction ensures a crisp image even under harsh sunlight.

Ergonomically designed for efficiency, the Mark 5HD features more tactile and audible click adjustments, larger numbers, and a high-speed throw lever, enabling shooters to make quick, on-the-fly adjustments. The side focus parallax adjustment refines the reticle's clarity at various distances, minimizing perceived movement for a steady aim.

Constructed with a lightweight aluminum housing, this riflescope is not only durable but also significantly lighter than its competitors, reducing fatigue during extended use in the field or at the range. It is 100% waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, withstanding the rigors of extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and the recoil of high-caliber rifles.

Proudly designed, machined, and assembled in the USA, the Leupold 3.6-18x44 Mark 5HD Riflescope stands as a testament to reliability and performance, ready to handle any challenge with unwavering precision. Whether you're a professional guide or a dedicated marksman, this riflescope is guaranteed to elevate your shooting experience to new heights.
