I have decided to go for a 1/8 MOA adjustable for the F-TR league so I am just wondering if anyone would be interested in my Leupold Mk4 LRT 8.5-25x50 Mildot?

It's a genuine UK import not a Chinese copy and comes with Leupold 4 inch sun shade. Its in very good condition, I assume that there may possibly be some minor mounting marks under the rings but otherwise it is in perfect condition other than I snapped off the rear lense cap from its sprung mounting (easily replaced) all boxed with the original packaging etc.

They are currently £1200-£1300 brand new so I am thinking £850+postage

I will be at the Shooting Show at Newark both days next weekend on the NSRA main stand so I can bring it with me to be viewed and to save postage.

Does £850 seem un-realistic, even if you're not in the market I'd appreciate any thoughts if it sounds about right :) or completely outrageous :o

My only thoughts - why eighth MOA clicks? I've never found it necessary for F/TR. More power yes - at least 32X.

Vince,

Well the extra power is part of the idea of changing but I figured the finer adjustment might help especially with the short range target.

by the way thanks for the course at the weekend it was great fun, I look forward to Diggle in April

I think I sold my one of them for £750 about a year and a half ago, so given the price hike they've had I reckon thats about right.

If I had a little more money I'd have bought it off you!! Great scope, loved mine.
