The Mark 4 LR/T tactical rifle scope from Leupold comes with features such as a rugged finish; impressive low light performance and clearness of sight that fully justify its price. The Leupold Mark 4 LR/T series has already been adapted US Army for the current M-24 Sniper System. However, even though it is originally a tactical scope, a Mark 4 can be used for hunting purposes also. In fact, it is very suitable for long range shootings in low light. Therefore, the Mark 4 LR/T is being promoted as a ‘dual-use’ scope, which offers some advantages or other for everybody.

All scopes in the Mark 4 range are around 13 inches long and have tube diameters of 30mm. Its body is made of solid 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, which does not distort the light that comes through it. All models have a beautiful but understated rugged matte black finish, which will make any rifle look impressive. The subdued finishing ensures that it is not noticed by your game while you are hunting. One feature, which will be particularly helpful for long-range shooters, is the finger-adjusted wind and elevation adjustments mechanism that turns with audible clicks.

Another interesting feature is that the scope is filled with Nitrogen gas and is completely sealed by a unique technology used by Leupold. This ensures that the scopes are completely waterproof and no moisture will ever deposit into them. You will be able to use them in any condition without the fear of encountering fogging problems.

Mark 4 comes with both fixed and adjustable optical magnification. The power can vary from 3.5-10X40 to 8.5-25X50. Also, there are various reticles to choose from, such as mil dot, tactical milling, duplex, illuminated, TMR and many more. Mil dot is by far the most popular choice, as it not only has the Duplex-like thick bars, but also small dots for even further accuracy. Also the lens of a Mark 4 has a Multi-coat 4 that ensures perfect optical clarity in all weather conditions. It allows a high light penetration through the scope to reach your eye and an outstanding contrast of vision. The scope also comes with a parallax adjustment device on the side for focusing the parallax fast and easily.

A Leupold Mark 4 LR/T rifle scope may cost you anything between $1000 and $2000. It may seem a bit more expensive compared to some other scopes. However, if you look carefully at the impressive list of the features it has, you should be persuaded that this is exactly the thing that you need for your rifle. Remember, it also comes with a life-long guarantee from Leupold, which is one of the most trusted names in the world of optics and tactical rifle scopes.
