    Rifle Scopes March-FX 1-10X24 34mm

    I noticed that March has posted the complete specs for these two LPVOs at their website. FFP and Dual Reticles. My understanding is that all -F and -FX riflescopes have 34mm tubes with 4mm thick walls and that's why the new 1.5-15X42 FFP/DR and the 1-10X24 FFP/DR now have the -FX in their...

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42x56 PRS scope

    I've been playing with the new March 5-42x56 PRS scope for the last few days in the March booth at SHOT. There was a lot of interest in that riflescope and for good reasons. The scope is a nice size at just a smidge over 14 inches compared to another brand's 5-45x56 at a touch over 17 inches...

    Yesterday, I shot my last 1000 yard match before Raton. I have loaded 500 rounds for the upcoming event and because of the vagaries of component availability in the last year or so, I found myself starting a new batch of Varget at some point in the process. I elected to start the new batch...
