March Optics

If there just weren’t so much difference between the 42 and 52 objectives on these compact March scopes. All are eye box critical and without best technique will shadow on you in a heartbeat. But especially the 42s. Also that extra light is huge.


I would guess or hope that March might of fixed that eyebox problem. I would rather see a 52 obj myself. I had two march scopes one with a 52 & one with a 42. The 42 did have a noticeable eyebox thingy going on. Neither one was illuminated or I would of kept the 52. 
 
Can’t say enough about my March FX 5-40. Focuses down to 10 yards! 40 power is very useful for seeing those far away shots splash to make a hit on the second. I find the eyebox the same as most scopes. It’s got a 56 bell on her so it’s very bright. All this and it’s under 30 oz. But the 3-24’s are great now they’ve got 52 objectives. They’re the toast of the town on powder burner forums.
