What is everyone’s recommendation for Leupold scopes?
Been looking at the new BX5HD-2 or Mark 5 but really up to any. Thoughts?

I just got the mark4 6-24 and love it. I went with the mark 4 over the mark 5 as it's a bit lighter

When I retired four years ago, I bought a Savage 110 Storm and topped it with this scope.
It’s great

The magnification you want at the price point you can justify.
You get what you pay for, but there are diminishing returns.
Value wize the VX5 is probably the sweet spot on performance vs cost.
