It’s no secret that I love to shoot accurately at long ranges and over the years I’ve learned a lot about the importance of good optics and their role in accomplishing that goal. Now I have a great example of one of those optics with the Leupold Mark V HD precision rifle scope.
I grew up with Leupold products, and over the decades Leupold has become a very well-respected household name in the Firearms Optics world, and the mark 5 HD is a great example of years of testing and evaluation on already record-setting engineering and design.
Now the Mark V is a top-shelf scope; it comes in many different Power variations from a two to ten-variable power up to a 7 by 35 Power Scope, such as this one. This is a 100 waterproof and fog-proof scope built around a 35-millimeter tube and made to hold up to The Recoil of large caliber rifles with the ability to max out the performance of all the latest long-range rifles and ammo.
This version is a 7 to 35-variable power model. It’s mounted on the Savage 110 precision rifle in .338 Lapua Magnum, and it suits the long-range capability of this round and rifle very well as we found out at the range. This is a first focal plane scope, which means the reticle appears to change size in relation to the target as you increase that magnification. That gives you a major advantage as the stadium marks or the hash marks as we call them are always relevant to the size of your target as you increase that magnification, making it much easier to range known Target sizes at distances using your reticle.
Now speaking of reticles, this state-of-the-art scope uses a mill-based system with an innovative grid-style reticle that gives you very precise aiming points for bullet drop and wind correction. The Mark 5 is built around Leupold’s professional grade optic system offering great light transmission as well as glare reduction and clarity. The scope has a ton of great features such as a 5:1 zoom ratio, an integral throw lever, a side focus knob designed for precision shooting M5 C3 elevation adjustments locking dial and re-zero capability, and of course Leupold’s lifetime warranty.
