Overview

A first focal plane 2.5-10x42mm riflescope in a 30mm tube, model 183738, with an illuminated TMR reticle, motion-sensor illumination shutoff and USA-based manufacture.

This revives the Mark 4 name on a modern optical platform rather than reissuing the older military-grade line, a distinction more than one reviewer with prior Mark 4 experience calls out directly.

  • First focal plane illuminated TMR reticle
  • M5C3 turret system with locking zero
  • 100 percent waterproof, fogproof and shockproof
  • Motion Sensor Technology extends battery life

Who it's for

Suits hunters and long-range shooters who want first focal plane ranging at any magnification and are comparing options in the same tier as premium European scopes.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • First focal plane keeps ranging accurate at any zoom
  • Motion-sensing illumination shutoff to save battery
  • Glass clarity compares well to premium European scopes
  • Designed, machined and assembled in the USA
Cons
  • Small 12-review sample limits long-term zero retention data
  • Premium price positioning noted against high-end glass comparisons

Performance notes

Because the reticle is first focal plane, it scales with magnification so range estimation stays accurate at any zoom level. Motion Sensor Technology shuts off the illuminated reticle after five minutes of inactivity and reactivates as soon as movement is detected, meant to extend battery life without the shooter managing it manually.
