I have used the search, I have read the reviews, now it's time for some long-term follow-ups from March 3-24x42 users.
I am thinking of getting this scope for the lighter weight and smaller profile. This will be for a long range rifle for competition and general use out to 1000+ yards and closer in.
I understand that a 3-24 mag range has limits. Truth be told, in LR shooting I rarely run over 15X, and in most matches I'm at 8-10X most of the time. So for me the 20-24X range of this scope is not very important except in some corner cases where conditions may warrant it. With that in mind, what I want to know is:
1) How do you find the low-mid range of this optic (4-16X)?
2) Do you like the optics quality? Reticle size? Illumination? Etc.
3) Do you find the knobs are good for competition use in terms of speed and ergonomics?
4) How does it compare to your other scopes set at the same magnification range?
5) Any warranty issues?
6) Anything else long-term you want to add?
I have done a lot of research into March scopes and I think they have a good thing going in terms of optics engineering. I'd like to find what people using them in non-benchrest field conditions think.
Thanks…
