March FX 1-10x24mm Shorty Gen II Focus Question

Any updates on this? Came across this looking into 1-10 scopes.

Reviving this thread, Does anyone have a review of their gen 2 march shorty?

I have one, though aside from basement pew-pewing and a few hours doing basic, up to 20 yard shooting, haven't really pushed it.

Within that narrow scope--no pun intended--any particular questions?

How do you like it compared to other lpvo’s you’ve had in the past? How is the eye box on it and have you had any issues with it?

Somewhere mid page has some of my thoughts on the March..


I like the March, and more than I thought I would when I first turned on the illumination and looked through it. For my eyes, "ease of use" goes to the S&B but of course its price...

No issues, though I don't think my usage to date would reveal any.

Some of the windage holdovers at 10x are a bit subtle

I would need to spend more time comparing the Vortex and the March at each magnification to see how they sit next to each other. While the eye box on the March is fine, getting that defined "edge of the barrel" is a bit easier with the vortex. (This may be the scopes or it may be my eyes an how Ive mounted them).

Update?

At the moment, no. I decided that the holdovers were--at least to my eyes--much too subtle. Not unusable, but close enough. Especially when compared to the very-similar-but-not-100%-identicle reticle in the 1.5-15.

Currently, March has the scope to put the 1.5-15--with its more solid windage holds--in the 1-10. Whether I should have just bought a S&B is playing in my head.
