The Leupold Mark 3HD 3-9x40mm delivers precision optics with tactical reliability for hunters and competitive shooters demanding consistent performance. This riflescope combines Leupold's proven glass quality with modern illuminated reticle technology in a robust 30mm tube design.
What Makes This Different
The Mark 3HD features Leupold's Twilight Max HD Light Management System, transmitting up to 92% of available light for superior clarity in low-light conditions. The 30mm main tube provides 20% more internal adjustment range compared to standard 1-inch tubes, while the aircraft-grade aluminum construction withstands repeated heavy recoil. The illuminated FireDot TMR reticle offers 8 brightness settings with motion sensor technology that automatically shuts off after 5 minutes of inactivity.
Key Features
- 3-9x magnification with 40mm objective lens for versatile ranging applications
- Illuminated FireDot TMR reticle with red dot center and mil-based ranging marks
- 30mm tube diameter provides 80 MOA windage and elevation adjustment
- Twilight Max HD coatings deliver 92% light transmission across all surfaces
- Motion sensor technology extends battery life up to 1 year continuous use
- Second focal plane reticle maintains consistent subtension at all magnifications
- Waterproof to 1 meter depth and nitrogen-filled for fog-proof performance
Field testing confirms the Mark 3HD maintains zero through temperature extremes from -40°F to 140°F. The TMR reticle's mil-dot spacing enables accurate range estimation and holdover calculations for long-range shooting scenarios. Competition shooters appreciate the precise click adjustments with audible and tactile feedback, while hunters benefit from the fast target acquisition in dense cover situations.
