This makes it one of the most popular choices for military forces around the globe and elite law enforcement units here at home. It's the ideal combination of easy-to-use, battle-tested ruggedness, and drop-dead accuracy.
Built around Leupold’s Professional-Grade Optical System, the Mark 6 offers unmatched light transmission designed to outperform in the most challenging lighting conditions. Its industry leading glare reduction provides a clear image in harsh, direct light, while the resolution and clarity will meet the demands of any professional shooter in the field. And it's not just easy to manipulate, it's tough, too. Drop it or run it over and a Mark 6 is still precise and accurate.
Its unique combination of features, durability, and professional-grade optical performance guarantees that it can handle any challenge you throw at it. The Mark 6 is 100% waterproof and fogproof, and like all Leupold riflescopes, it's designed, machined, and assembled in the USA and guaranteed to perform for life.
A versatile 6:1 zoom ratio gives you 6 times more magnification at high power than at low power (model magnification ranges are available in powers of 6x: 1-6, 2-12, 3-18, 4-24, etc.), so you can dial your power way down for close encounters or all of the way up for long-range shots. The larger the zoom ratio, the more versatile one scope can be.
PROFESSIONAL-GRADE OPTICAL SYSTEM
Leupold’s Professional-Grade Optical System offers unmatched light transmission that’s designed to outperform in the most challenging lighting conditions, industry-leading glare reduction for a clear image in harsh, direct light, and the resolution and clarity that professional guides and shooters demand in the field.
The side focus adjusts the scope's parallax, making the reticle clearer and have less perceived movement when you're shooting at different distances.
The M5B2 adjustment is available on select models and features up to 20 MILs of elevation adjustment and 0.1 MIL clicks. A pinch-and-turn lock mechanism and a fully adjustable zero stop help prevent inadvertent adjustments and ensure accurate return to zero.
In First Focal Plane (front focal plane) scopes, the reticle grows and shrinks at the same rate as the target when you adjust the magnification. This allows you to accurately use the reticle feature at any magnification setting. These reticles are ideal in tactical situations but can also aid in range estimation for hunters and target shooters.
The ZeroStop system creates a backstop when returning the dial back to zero, so you don't accidently turn the dial a full revolution in the wrong direction.
WATERPROOF, FOGPROOF, & SHOCKPROOF
Leupold pioneered modern waterproof and fogproof technology using advanced internal gasses and sealing methods that withstand extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and shocks, so the internals of the optics stay moisture free and crystal clear for life.
