Does anyone have any information on this spotter: Leupold 12-40x60mm, Black Spotting Scope, Inverted H-32 Reticle #110183

I have Googled heavily and all I find is the uselessly breathless stock Leupold ad copy on all the sites that sell this. I figured someone here would have the scoop, but I did not find any old or current topics. SWFA has a broken link on their picture of the reticle configuration for this scope.

Is this the standard MK4 spotter with the Horus H-32 reticle installed upside down so that the scope can be used with the eyepiece lower than the objective?

They do have a better price than most of the other places on that scope/reticle combo.

I did find out somewhere else that it was like I figured- the Inverted reticle is installed upside down so that the scope can be mounted with the objective high, and still view the reticle in it's normal presentation.

Now just to figure out if I want the TMR or the H-32. I can see it going either way. It helps that the inverted H-32 is hundreds of dollars cheaper than the regular H-32; putting it on par with the TMR pricewise.

I ordered the TMR, because that is the one I have with my scope. It is a great reticle with all the substensions making calculations easy and especially with the FFP, adjustments with your scope will be a breeze. I cannot wait to get my 12-40 which just shipped.
