Tremendously under-rated scope. I have the same scope in a Tremor 3 that I tried to sell a couple months ago and there wasn't any movement on it at about the same price. Some of the nicest glass I've looked through. Tracking was spot on and made a 1st round hit on steel at 2600 yards with a 300 Norma and an AB kestrel.

Scwalker83 I hear you brother; this is a hell of a scope and a hell of a deal. I won't be crying if I don't sell it. At a mile, few friends and I compared the Mark 8 glass to other scopes such as a S&B PM2, a NF ATACR and a Razor Gen 2; it was better than the Razor and either on par or better with the S&B and the NF, depending on the eyes of the shooter. The tracking is dead on, the 35mm body allows for great clarity and adjustment, the 8x zoom is perfect (awesome field of view at 3.5 power), the illumination perfect and the H59 reticle is just outstanding. I am starting on a new build and the rifle that scope was on is going for sell (Sako TRG 22), so I thought I'll put the scope for sale as well, as I would like to have the same exact scope on all my rifles (I can have unbeatable price on another brand). If it does not sell, it will go on that new rifle without any regrets.
When the Mark 8 first came out, Leupold put the price so high that it deterred plenty of shooters to consider it and it did not get the attention it should have received. It's a shame, as this is a top quality optic (still pretty high price now, see link): https://www.eurooptic.com/Leupold-Mk8-35-25X56mm-35mm-M5B2-Matte-Illum-FFP-H59.aspx

How much “actual “elevation travel are you getting?

 

[Scwalker83]

I can run mine with a 20 moa base and a 25 moa mount and have enough to have a 100 yard zero with no shading visible. I thing that probably gives nearly 90 moa/25ish mils of elevation. This wasn't intentional, I didn't know I had elevation built into the mount til I looked more closely.

How much “actual “elevation travel are you getting?

26.2 mils

 

[Prw]

And you still have a little travel down?

 

[Tango down]

Yes

And you still have a little travel down?

These will always be there; elevation may differ a bit depending on your zero.
