The Leupold Mark 5HD 5-25x56mm riflescope with the illuminated Tremor 3 reticle in matte (part no. 171777) pairs a dense holdover grid with exceptional turret range — 34.9 MIL of elevation and 17.5 MIL of windage. Leupold puts the Tremor 3 reticle on the first focal plane so range and wind corrections read true at any magnification, and M5C3 ZeroLock turrets click in fine 0.1 mil increments with a positive return to zero. A high-speed throw lever and Twilight Max HD light management round out the control set. Among 5-25x gun scopes built for match and long-range hunting, this Tremor 3 configuration is the hold-and-dial hybrid.

Key Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this scope have so much elevation travel? The 120 MOA range gives extreme long-range shooters room to dial distances that would exhaust a standard scope’s turret, while the Tremor 3 reticle covers even more distance with holdovers alone.

Does the Tremor 3 reticle replace the need to dial? For fast follow-ups it can, since the grid covers holdover and wind directly; for a fresh zero at a known distance, dialing the turret remains the precise option.
