    Why don't we see more Leupold Mark 8 scopes in the Optics Forum?

    I have a mark 8, it has been a great optic. There is just not much love for leupold on the hide... mtncreek has the good info on mark4's, they are being phased out due to old tech, not because they are going to jack the price up through one dealer. Leupold has to finish its military contracts...
