    Good story, The 1.5-15X42 is a super optics. DEON did something special in the objective lenses as the front end feels heavier than I expected. My unit is the original model, SFP with the 30mm tube with the MTR-5 reticle, I have it on an AR-10 that I have used in 600 yards NRA competition.

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    I should point out that there is a reason why it's a Gen 2 and not a new model. The March-FX 5-42X56 HM was first released in 2019. The gen 2 has an enhancement to the optical formula, new turrets (Shuriken, which have been around for 3+ years, though the writable version of the Shuriken is...

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    My understanding is that the Gen 1 and Gen 2 use the same High Master, Super-ED glass. The Gen 2 has been tweaked to enhance the IQ of the edges when full adjustment is applied. As you noted, the turrets are different between the generations and the PRS edition's writable turrets are different...

    The March-FX 5-42X56 HM Gen 2 is also used by some top ELR shooters. https://marchscopes.com/news/21477/ Just as FYI. David got the 5-42X56 HM Gen 2 with Shuriken turrets and a reticle other than the FML-WBR just 2 weeks ago. He mounted it on his match gun, zeroed it and went up to Kansas to...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner T6Xi 3-18x56 Review and comparison with NF ATACR 4-16x42, S&B US 3-20x50 and March 4.5-28x52

    The March-FX 4.5-28X52 HM is very strong. The main tube is 34mm with the walls being 4mm thick. The warranty is 10 years from the dare of manufacture, regardless of the owner, so fully transferable. DEON will usually do warranty work even after the warranty has expired. The SCARC 20 is...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner T6Xi 3-18x56 Review and comparison with NF ATACR 4-16x42, S&B US 3-20x50 and March 4.5-28x52

    The March-F3-24X42 is a solid riflescope, but I'm wondering why you're now considering the March riflescope that is being discussed in this thread, to wit, the March-FX 4.5-28X52 HM. It's a newer design and it has a huge FOV, with its 25° AOV, compared to the 20° AOV of the 3-24X42. The...

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    Yes, it is. The 5-42X56 HM has a larger objective lens and the Gen II was reformulated to present superb IQ up to the extreme edge of adjustment and when the riflescope has 40MIL of adjustment range, that's saying something. Also, the AOV of the 5-42X56 HM is 26°. The 4.5-28X52 HM was...

    As I understand it, the demand has been astronomical, so get in line. Order exactly what you want, and be patient, perfection takes a bit of time.

    Way to totally hijack a thread. We are now talking about videos of suppressors, not even optics anymore. We were discussing the amazing capability of the March-FX 5-42X56 HM to deal with mirage, and I see that Shayne placed well in a match this weekend. I'd like to hear more about that and...

    The March 3-24X42/52 has a 30mm tube, with the walls being 2mm thick. Conversely, all of the X and FX series, including the 5-42X56 HM have 34mm tubes, witth the walls of the main tube being 4mm thick. These scopes are immensely strong.

    I will also add that Kowa makes the best spotters if detecting and dealing with mirage is important to you. I tried to explain how much mirage is part of the F-class discipline when your target is 5 inches in diameter at 1000 yards. This past weekend, I shot a 1000-yard match at Bayou with my...
