The Leupold Mark 5HD 2-10x30 M5C3 FFP TMR Illuminated (Model: LE179703) is a highly versatile, professional-grade riflescope designed as a modern, high-performance successor to the classic Mark 4 LR/T scopes historically used on military MK12 Special Purpose Rifles (SPR). Engineered to bridge the gap between Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs) and high-magnification precision scopes, this optic features an advanced optical system that delivers elite-level light transmission, extreme glare reduction, and the high-resolution clarity required by shooters operating in harsh environments.

Key Features:

• M5C3 ZeroLock Turrets: Features a low-profile, three-turn tactile dial providing precise 0.1 MRAD adjustments, a visual revolution indicator, and a push-button ZeroLock to prevent accidental dial movement.
• First Focal Plane (FFP) TMR Reticle: The Tactical Milling Reticle scales with magnification, allowing for accurate range estimation and holdovers at any zoom level from 2x to 10x.
• Motion Sensor Technology (MST): To preserve battery life, the integrated MST automatically deactivates the illuminated reticle after 5 minutes of inactivity and instantly reactivates it upon detecting movement.
• Side Focus Parallax Adjustment: Allows shooters to fine-tune parallax from mid-range distances out to infinity for maximum precision.
• Robust 35mm Main Tube: Provides superior strength and allows for a wide range of elevation and windage adjustments.

Who It Is For:

The Leupold Mark 5HD 2-10x30 is designed for tactical marksmen, law enforcement professionals, and sporting shooters who require a highly adaptable optic for tactical carbines, designated marksman rifles (DMR), and SPR setups. It is ideal for fast-paced hunting environments and mid-range target shooting where rapid target acquisition at close quarters (2x) and precise shot placement at extended ranges (10x) are both required. Australian buyers should note that as a high-end tactical optic manufactured in the USA, this product is subject to US export controls (such as ITAR or EAR regulations) and must be sourced through authorised Australian distributors to ensure legal compliance.
