I am getting a high caliber sales mk12 this week and wondering what optic would be best for it for clone correctness and usability. Thanks
Rifle Scopes Mk12 Mod 1 optic?

NF 2.5-10x24 .... if you can find them it or Leupold mk4-2.5-8x36 MR/T or 3.5-10x40.
If you must have a “clone correct” scope, I’d go Nightforce. There’s a 2.5-10x24 that just sold in PX for $1450. The NF 2.5-10x32 is also correct and is a great optic. The leupold MRT 2.5-8x36 is the worst of the bunch; the Leupold mk4 3.5-10x40 is a decent scope.
There were a couple recent threads about this very topic. You can search this sub forum using “Mk12” as a search term.

Good luck finding the clone correct optic.
Both the nightforce options have been discontinued, you'll have to buy used.
I believe the Leupold has been discontinued as well.
The sightron 3.5-10 would be a very good "clone equivalent", as well as the PST II 2.5-10.

yeah i have viper 2.5-10 already as a place holder looking to upgrade sounds like nightforce is the way to go. Thanks for the help gents I will keep my eyes out for one.
Either of these can be found on the secondary market for around $1200. When you used to be able to find the MR/T for $700-$800 they were a good buy. Giving $1,000+ for a obsolete mil/moa MR/T that will cost a additional $200+ for a mil conversion from Leupold when they’re actually offering said services is stupid.
Mile High just posted having some 2.5-10x24s.

Nightforce C462 & C538: NXS 2.5-10x24 **Limited Run**
The NXS 2.5-10 x 24 is unique in that it has a straight body tube to the objective lens, which provides for a very compact package (9.9 inches in length). For many years, the Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x family —proven in the hands of the U.S. military—has been renowned for performance far beyond its...

TS30A2 are going for over $1500 due to discontinue. I have one on my MK12M0.
I would go for the Nightforce 2.5-10x24 in NF rings. Save the money.
Its a shame there is no good clone correct FFP.

Oh yay, I can't wait for the "discussion" about what is truly clone correct and what options are better...
That mile high offer is actually a cheaper price than I payed for my Mil-R 2.5-10x24 about 2-3 years ago. Great deal.

Super great deal. I’ve seen used ones go for more. There’s one on Ebay for $2250 with an IHR reticle.
I’ll play.
Facts.
1. cloners are gay as fuck and ruined a secondary market.
2. There is no such thing as “clone correct” as the end user modded the fucking thing for themselves and needs.
Just picked up this Nightforce 2.5 10 24 love it, but it costs some money, also have a cage coded Leupold MK 4 can tell you know glass and tech better on this NF.
So lucky, I waited to long and now the KAC Mk12-Mod 1 RAS (21318) are none existent. Just spoke with Kyle or Alan this afternoon and I’m on a waitlist until they get a KAC shipment in… great people, communication and quality builds at HCS. Happy shooting!
Today? Probally the MK5 3.8-18. Great glass, light, good reticle selection, FFP and would fit on a the MK12 well. Way better glass than any price comparable Nightforces not to mention the NXS line is mostly SFP. If budget is unlimited a ZCO 4-20 or S&B Ultrashort..
