I got this Scope when I bought a rifle, it is great at the range, tracks great clear etc. I took it hunting this morning and didn’t feel like the eye box was as big some other hunting scopes I’ve had in the past. It’s a mil dot scope. Am I just expecting to much? I haven’t heard anything bad about them but I’m debating on keeping it or not.
Update scope is MK 4 LR/T 4.5-14x40 mil dot. I have not been able to find a lot or model sold or for sale currently so I’m still unsure on how to price it if I decide to sell. Thanks for the input so far. |

Could anybody help with a sale price if I decide to go that way? It’s the Mark IV LRT model, only MK IVs I’ve seen on the EE were clone parts so their price may not be in-line.

If so what magnification where you on? Did you have a proper cheek weld and a full picture in the scope, no black showing on the edges? |

OP, type your scope specs into google search bar and add eBay after, it willl pull up any current and most recent sells on the internet which will give you an idea of going price...

Need pictures.
I am 100% sure the Leupold Mark 4 line of scopes only came in a 40mm and 50mm objective lens size. |

No such scope exists. Leupold never made a mk4 in 4-14. Nor in 44 mm. Maybe it’s a 4.5-14 40mm?

OP, a few things:
1. It’s probably a 4.5-14x40 or x50. There is no 44mm. 2. The Leupold Mk4 series of scopes is probably the most widely copied scopes by Chinese manufacturers. LOTS of fakes out there. Be sure it’s an authentic Leupold, consider contacting Leupold to confirm. 3. The 4.5-14x series of scopes shrinks the field of view on the lowest magnification. Look through it as you increase magnification and you’ll notice the diameter of the view expanding until you hit almost 6x. 4. Assuming it’s not a Chinese fake, price will depend on a few things: - Illuminated or unilluminated reticle? - First or second focal plane? - 40mm or 50mm objective? - M1, M2, M3, or M5 turrets? (Most are M1, 1/4” adjustments @ 100 yds) Resale is $500-$750 depending on specs and condition. A model number would help. |

That's a great scope.
The Vortex Razor 1-6 has a HUGE eyebox, so comparing this is a bad idea. |

Sorry about the mayonnaise, guys.
