Leupold Mark 5HD: Professional Precision Optics

The Mark 5HD represents a significant advancement in modern rifle scope design. Weighing up to 20 ounces less than comparable scopes in its class, this 3.6-18x44mm optic delivers the optical performance and durability demanded by serious shooters without unnecessary weight penalty.

Optical Performance

The Mark 5HD's professional-grade optical system provides exceptional edge-to-edge clarity and extreme low-light performance. The Twilight Max HD light management system ensures superior image quality in challenging lighting conditions, while the generous eyebox accommodates various shooting positions and head placement.

The TMR Reticle System

The front focal plane illuminated TMR (Tactical Mil Reticle) expands on traditional mil dot designs:

• Hash mark precision: Utilizes hash marks instead of dots for improved ranging and hold-over accuracy
• Spacing: Hash marks are spaced 0.5 MIL apart, transitioning to 0.2 MIL spacing on outer edges
• Wind and drop compensation: Provides aiming points for both wind and bullet drop adjustments
• Red illumination: Center section features red illumination for excellent contrast in low-light shooting
• Non-caliber specific: Works effectively across various rifle platforms and ammunition types

Mechanical Features

The Mark 5HD is engineered for rapid, accurate adjustments:

• M5C3 Zero Lock adjustments with audible and tactile click feedback
• 1/10th MIL click adjustments for precise elevation and windage corrections
• High-speed throw lever for rapid magnification changes
• Side focus for quick parallax adjustment
• Three revolutions of elevation adjustment to maximize performance with modern long-range ammunition

The scope features 100% waterproof and fogproof construction using 2nd generation argon/krypton waterproofing technology. Dual-use flip-open lens covers protect optics in the field.
