Having a 6mm GT built for PRS, Thinking of a Leupold MK5 HD 5 x 25, but curious what might be comparable in that price range?
Thanks for your help!

I want to build off this, ^^^ since it's a good startThese types of questions usually drag on for a dozen pages without actually satisfying any one single answer. Determining what you need should be your first priority not just a brand name or or power range.
First of all, there is a large number of top quality scopes suited for the PRS competitions. This is because the sport of PRS has grown to be a huge success so the number of shooters has grown along with this popularity. All the manufacturers want to cash in and rightly so.
Things for consideration:
1st or 2nd focal plane - this is important as to what you see, how you see and understand your target. Fast acquisition is imperative.
Power range is influenced by what you are comfortable seeing at any power setting not just the most power. The furthest targets on your PRS range and what you are comfortable seeing and accurately hitting helps determine the highest power. It's often a good idea to attend PRS matches to not only see what shooters are using but to possibly get a chance to actually look through different scopes at different ranges.
Controls and ease of function can make or break your scores. Make sure you understand the ease of use for your choices.
MOA or MRAD? Find what works for you. This can take reading and practice.
Budget is usually the defining decision unfortunately. Not everyone can afford a $6 or $7,000 scope for their first venture into PRS.
It really doesn't matter who's opinion is considered to be the most popular. Search out the one which works best for you.
Enjoy the process!
Fine one used. It's a great scope for matches. The glass didn't agree with my eyes but lots of folks run them. Tracking and repeatability are probably the most important features for matches and it check both of those boxes. Their reticles could use some work imho.Having a 6mm GT built for PRS, Thinking of a Leupold MK5 HD 5 x 25, but curious what might be comparable in that price range?
