The Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25x56 redefined the long-range optic by tackling the industry's biggest hurdle: excessive weight. While most precision glass in this class is heavy enough to throw off a rifle's balance, the Mark 5HD delivers a full 5-25x magnification in a streamlined 30-ounce package. This lighter footprint lowers your rifle’s center of gravity, significantly reducing cant and making positional transitions feel fluid rather than forced.
Precision at 800 yards and beyond requires more than just clear glass; it requires mechanical perfection. The 35mm maintube provides a massive 35 MIL elevation range, supported by the M5C3 ZeroLock turret system. These dials offer crisp, repeatable 0.1 MIL clicks that won't shift or exhibit backlash, even after a full day of heavy dialing. Because the PR2-MIL reticle is located in the First Focal Plane, your holdovers and ranging remain dead-on across the entire zoom range.
By pairing a massive 56mm objective lens with a high-performance optical path, this scope pulls every bit of available light into your eye when you're cranked up to 25x. Whether you’re tracking a target through recoil or engaging multiple threats at varying distances, the Mark 5HD gives you the clarity and speed needed for high-stakes shooting. It is a rugged, USA-made system built for those who demand elite performance without the unnecessary bulk.
