I bought this new five or so years ago and it's sat on my .264 win mag in my safe most of the time. I shot my muley last year with it. When I took the scope off the rifle I saw the ring marks (near the eyepiece only). I sent it to Leupold who has given it a look and confirmed it's good. I am having a new rifle built and will be changing scopes this is up for sale.
There is a dent on the top turret cap and the ring marks. There are no other marks or scratches and the glass is 100%. It has a duplex reticle, no adjustable parallax and no CDS. I do not have the original box.
I seem to remember it called silver when I bought it but it most certainly looks more gunmetal than silver. It's really a nice looking color. My rifle has a stainless barrel and it's more silver than this scope.
