Leica sent me this scope for evaluation. It requires 34mm scope mounts and has a 1/10 mil based adjustment capable of dialing 32 mils for elevation and 18 mils for windage. This is a first focal plane reticle and has an illuminated option. At 5x magnification, field of view at 100 meters is 27'.

It comes out of the box with a lens cloth, allen key, throw lever knob, 2032 battery, sunshade, and "notes" card-more on this later.

It came in at 36.4 ounces on my scale.

The reticle is called "ballistic reticle" which is a mil based reticle similar to the NF Mil-R reticle.

The zero stop feature is marketed as “tool less” but does use an allen key which lives inside the windage turret.

This review will be conducted in an "end user" and field usage capacity.

It has been mounted to a Kelbly Nanook 7 PRC with an XLR chassis and Preferred Barrels carbon fiber tube 21" long.

If there are any questions or comments, let me know I will do my best to answer them.
