The March 2.5-25X42 or 52 (there are two models) are awesome scopes; solid as all get out, light, and totally reliable. The FFP version is the 3-24X42 and 52. Same design, length, and weight, and longevity.

In that range, my current favorite is the March 1.5-15X42. It's 10 inches and 22 ounces, 2 inches shorter than the 2.5-25X42 and 3-8X42, but about an ounce or 2 heavier. That's because of the new design objective lens group. (There's some magic going on in there.) They all have ED glass, of course. They are March scopes.

Lou and Turk are definitely part of the March saga and are absolute characters. I always enjoy talking with them.
