Great scope at a great price - Leupold Mark 4 2.5-8x36mm MR/T M2 Illuminated Reticle Tactical Scopes

I'm in the process of completing a Mk12 clone build and have been wanting to use the Mark 4 as the glass. Finally found it at a great price and pulled the trigger. I had been using a Mark AR Mod1 and after mounting and sighting in the Mark4, I can tell you it was a night and day improvement over the Mark AR Mod1. Nothing against the Mark AR Mod1, but you do notice the advantages and realize why the mark4 cost more. With that being said, are there better scopes or scopes that offer more out there at the same price range as the Mark4? Sure, but I'm building a clone rifle and wanted to stay as true as reasonably possible to what it was issued with.
