I had two of it and know just keep one..
in my opinion it's a good scope for the price ,the glass is clear ,light enough to be use on an hunting rifle,love the TMR reticle and never had any problem with these scope,they track well and are quite rugged.
But they have a few things i dislike that's why i sold one and maybe will sold the other:-no matching reticle and turrets
-no zero stop
-are 2nd focal plane
If you use it on a bench rifle ,you don't need these options but for tactical or long range hunting/varmints these options are very useful.

I have one on my 300 WM right now. They track very well, glass is clear, they're durable, and Leupold customer service is great.

The knobs suck. I've had lots of different glass, and really, I'd get the HDMR before I'd get a Mark 4 w/ M1s.

I had the exact scope for awhile. It was nice but for the money I think there are plenty of better options. I wasn't really that impressed with the glass for a 1000+ optic. He'll I'd even go as far to say that my buddies 6-24 viper pst had around the same quality glass, oh and did I mention it came new from the factory with a canted reticle. Not a huge deal as they fixed it for me but really should you even have to send a scope of this price back with the regularity that I hear it needs to be done? Also I did notice a slight amount of blurring when I cranked it to 20x which sucks because the reticle is calibrated at 20x. I bought an ior 4-16x50 FFP and was surprised how much better the glass was!

I have one on my 338 Lapua in TMR. I love it. The only things I do not like about it is with the M1 knobs it doesn't match the reticle. And when you change the power from 6.5 to 20x it changes the eye relief quite a bit. So you have to move closer to the eye piece for the same sight picture. Other that that the scope is very durable, tracks well and has a bullet proof warranty.

Good quality scope for the money. TMR reticle is great, but would prefer matching knobs with reticle. Switching my scopes over to mil/ mil and try to use the same type of reticle in all my scopes.
