BEAVERTON, Ore. - Designed by Leupold's® Tactical Optics Division for optimal versatility and efficient performance, the Mark 6™ 3-18x44mm M5B2 riflescope comes in a small, light package well suited to military, law enforcement and competitive shooting applications.

Less than 12 inches long, the scope has a powerful 6x zoom range that provides an expansive field of view and rapid target acquisition at lower magnifications, as well as outstanding long-range target engagement at higher powers. Reticle options include the new CMR-W 7.62, which enables both speed and long-range precision for shooters using 7.62 carbines and other battle/patrol rifles.

The Mark 6 3-18x44mm riflescope also features new M5B2 adjustments:

0.1 mil-per-click elevation adjustments (M5) that allows for easy and precise corrections
Auto-Locking Pinch and Turn (B) to eliminate accidental movement in the field
two-turn (2) zero stop elevation dial with a tactile revolution indicator, providing 20 mils of travel (10 mils per revolution) while eliminating under- or over-rotation of the dial

"Our new Mark 6 3-18x44mm riflescope sets a new benchmark for size and performance. It's all about smaller, lighter, faster with this scope," said Kevin Trepa, vice president, tactical division for Leupold & Stevens, Inc.
