JMS's Review of Leupold Mark 3HD 4-12x40mm Rifle Scope, 30 mm Tube, Second Focal Plane (SFP)
Good: Glass quality is good, not great. Support from a major manufacturer. Made in the USA (quit buying stuff from China!) Nice size. I have non-illum so can't speak to that feature.
Bad: The reticle is like looking at two 2x4s. Great for a hunting optic in dense foliage. Not great for precision. Turrets are average.
Ugly: It's probably over priced for what it is. HOWEVER, I'm willing to pay more for products made in the US by American companies. This optic belongs in the $450-499 range. Finally, you get 5.6 mils of elevation. Full stop. That's plenty to get you to roughly 800 yards with most MODERN hunting cartages (i.e. Not .308) but if you want to shoot beyond that this is not the scope for you.
I got mine on a super good deal so I think it's worth what I paid for it. But not a dollar more. YMMV.
