March scope???

[prinum]

Is it worth the money with 5yr warranty (8x80x56) compare to alot of the well stablish scope marker with lifetime warranty?

Let the the carnage begin!!!

March's reputation and reviews place it at or near the top of the heap.

Re. 5 year warranty;

I would be more interested in knowing (if) or (that) they have an efficient repair or service facility. If the thing needs repair or maintenance in 10 or 20 years - you want to know it will get done for a fair or reasonable price. I am not sure how you would find this info. I do think the research is necessary. I would expect that someone at March would be prepared to answer questions from prospective customers.
The answer could be as simple as;
(a) "we will recondition any March scope for $200 plus shipping to ________ ."
or
(b) "send your March scope in to ________ along with $35 and we will quote you a repair cost"

If the scenario is (a) you are laughing.
If the scenario is (b) you need to ask now - what is the average "out the door repair cost at this time?"

Maybe some March owners can comment?

Tried to order one from Kelby's earlier this summer. The 80x is not available in Mil or cm turrets, nor is March planning either in the near future. Not for me.

Ordered a S&B 12.5 to 50x with 0.25cm turrets instead.

Anybody up here use a March? I'm contemplating importing one for F-Class (probably the 10-60x). Would love to hear some first-hand experience/review of their scopes.
