Ditto. I have the latest generation 8.5-25 Mark 4 and I can't find a single thing to complain about.

Yes. The latest Mark 4 models have .1mil turrets and mil reticles (MIL/MIL) with First Focal Plane of course. Mine has M5 turrets, TMR reticle, and FFP. The TMR is comparable to the P4 on the S&B, and the MLR2 on the NF F1 scope. The Leupold TMR reticle is superior to the MLR found on most NF scopes below the F1. Though I think they may be shipping the MLR2 now on more scopes. The TMR reticle gives you abilities to range with .1, .2, .5, and 1.0 mil increments. This is very handy when judging size/distance and also correcting follow-up shots.
You know, with the exception of the NF F1, all NF scopes are completely made in Japan and only assembled in US. Leupold Mark 4 scopes are made and assembled in USA with the only exception being the glass which comes from either Japan or Europe. I prefer to support US manufacturing.
