[QUOTE="AC300RUM, post: 2577764, member: 40196"] I have owned 3 NX8’s, a 2.5-20 FFP, 2.5-20 SFP, and a 4-32 SFP. I also currently own three MK5hd’s, all 3.6-18, one non illuminated and two illuminated, all TMR reticles. The Leupold MK5 is a better scope in my opinion. Better turrets (locking elevation and covered windage are huge in my book) , better glass, better illumination both in how it’s controlled and how it looks, and a cleaner reticle. I keep my non illuminated MK5 on 5-6 power when hunting and the reticle is plenty bold enough for quick shots in a cluttered background. I know there’s information out there about the MK5 loosing zero, I’ve never experienced this with my three or any of the others I’ve been around. I have no experience whatsoever with Maven. Keep an eye out on the forum for a used illuminated MK5, they show up from time to time at under 2k. [/QUOTE]
