    March scopes.

    Recently purchased my first March scope. I chose the Majesta after reading many reviews. It has been said that with this scope on 80x one can easily see 22 cal holes on paper at 600 yds. Looking forward to mounting this critter on one of my precision bolt rifles. Whatta Hobby!

      Interesting!
      It may take a bit of mount selection (depending on the rifle) to get a 56mm objective mounted.
      Nice to see Japan taking optics seriously again. Some of the other asian bloc optics are getting very good indeed.
      AS for 80 X, not sure if I have a non-dampened tripod that would be steady enough to view anything at that power.
      Personally, I've found 16 X to be a bit on the over magnification side, but that's just me who likes to bump around with 2.5 X or so for most of my shooting.
      Most of my serious target work was done at 12 X. There was a Legend 5-15 X that I still regret selling off.

      Do give us a shooting report, and a pic of that reticle, if you can!

        I use Night Force mounts on anything with a 34mm tube.
        Been using plenty of 60x optics so 80x isn't going to be a problem. Nice to be able to dial back to where I want to be rather than running out of juice. Whatta Hobby!

              Nice reticle and rifle.
              Those Dewey cleaning rods are decent. I have one in .22, and it get's the most duty.
              Post up some targets shot with that scope!
              I should look into getting a prone pad one of these days. At this age, the gravel starts to bite a bit. Still can't see myself lugging around a portable bench yet. The few I've looked at have seemed kinda wobbly and spindly.
              Hoping for a mid march gravel pit shoot. Probably end up doing a lot of plinking with the air rifles.
