    Rifle Scopes March FFP 1.5-15x42 MPVO Review and Comparison (w/ Nightforce and Athlon)

    I guess I need to ask our Mercury Program aficionado @Faith7 exactly how close he needs to focus.

    March FX 4.5-28x52 FFP High Master

    It's got to be a pretty hard hit. I have one on my F-TR rifle, and it has never come apart. It's been to scores of matches, all around the continent. If it comes apart, it's because it was appropriate to do so.

    March FX 4.5-28x52 FFP High Master

    Let me address the throw lever thing. It is not an afterthought; it is actually cleverly designed. It is inexpensive, it is some type of polymer (plastic), it is light, and it is designed to breakaway if hit hard. This way, it will not mar the surface of the riflescope, and if it hits...

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

    I think you're talking about the new March-X 8-80X56 HM Majesta. It's the one with the Titanium finish and black accents. Yes, that is an incredible high magnification riflescope.

    Kowa 10.5 Genesis

    I disagree. The Kowa Prominar spotters with fluorite glass surpass the euro glass in IQ. I've looked through enough Swaros and others, comparing them to the Kowas. The Kowas are the top.

    Kowa 10.5 Genesis

    In terms of IQ (Image Quality), the Kowa Prominar series of spotters, featuring fluorite crystal glass are the top spotters, above all others. Kowa does not use fluorite crystal glass in their binoculars, but instead they use their XD glass, which is their version of ED or perhaps even Super ED...

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

    High mag? 35x maximum? LOL.

    Do you run a SunShade and why or why not.

    I'll take a guess at your question. This is just conjecture on my part but I would say that manufacturers make the riflescope as long as it needs to be for the optical formula they are putting in the riflescope. Having the housing 3 inches longer would be viewed by many customers as a big...

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

    That was quite the review, well done, @Glassaholic. If I may offer a few thoughts on the March-FX 4.5-28X52. I get the focus on the technical/operational aspect of the riflescopes and you did a very thorough job there, but there is also the product presentation aspect, and by that, I mean...

    Do you run a SunShade and why or why not.

    I have a sunshade on all my riflescopes as well as my camera lenses. They protect the (expensive) objective lens element from contacting anything. They also keep out the rain, dust and so on, but it's mainly the contact protection for me. Also, I think the shooter who thought he could see...

    March FX 4.5-28x52 FFP High Master

    My 4.5-28X52 has the old turrets also, and they work just fine, for me. I do love the Shuriken turrets on my Majesta.

    I believe they are different internally and therefore cannot be replaced.

    Spotters Kowa Prominar vs Vortex Razor... Have we done this?

    That's a depth of field issue. What model is the Razor and how far away are you from the object you're observing?

    March FX 4.5-28x52 FFP High Master

    One unmentioned (so far) feature of the March-FX 4.5-28X52 HM is its ultra-wide FOV of 25° compared to the 20° of the March 3-24X42. That means you will have and 25% side to side FOV for a total of 156% of the view through the Marc 3-24X42, The FOV in the 4.5-28X52 HM is huge.

    Spotters Kowa Prominar vs Vortex Razor... Have we done this?

    The Kowa Prominar features lenses made from pure fluorite crystal. This type of glass virtually eliminates all chromatic aberration and makes for superb color definition and contrast. I also contend that the use of this type of glass produces an image that is more resistant to distortion from...

    Spotters I'm sure this is going to come across as a dumb question but here I am asking it...

    I didn't notice this thread when it first showed up, sorry for my late response. Optics manufacturers have been dealing with interchangeable lenses and eyepieces for many decades. Cameras have had intercheangeable lenses for a very long time. I remember my first SLR from the early 70s, having...

    SHOT SHOW 2024 NEW RIFLESCOPES

    That's good feedback, but allow me to address one aspect you mentioned that is really not an issue; ring height selection. The concept mechanism that was show at SHOT is actually a system. There would be a series of attachments that would provide: added height, canted mounts, and perhaps even...

    SHOT SHOW 2024 NEW RIFLESCOPES

    Yes, I figured you were only mentioning the first point as being your experience. However, the other two points are very valid and certainly something to consider in this system. Point #2 about having the reticle perfectly level to the body of the scope is something that DEON can control, but...

    SHOT SHOW 2024 NEW RIFLESCOPES

    I'm sure you're correct, and as I mentioned in my earlier response, making sure a reticle is perfectly center and leveled in a riflescope is certainly something that DEON can deliver, and I pointed to the fact they make riflescopes with dual reticles as an example of manufacturing capabilities.

    SHOT SHOW 2024 NEW RIFLESCOPES

    We discussed these three points at length at SHOT with DEON. This is just a concept but like everything else when it comes to optics, it's not a fit-all solution and it's not going to replace the current mechanisms that are highly adjustable. It is believed that this would appeal to shooters...
