I have both of these for short range, but in my opinion, your better off looking thru both of them and judging for yourself because no matter the opinion of others, it's your eyes that will be making up your mind for you, not other people's eyesight. We all see things different. All I can say to you about what I see thru both is that the NF is sharper image wise, but that seems to amplify mirage something terrible, no matter what power that I turn it to. My March is way better in heavy mirage than the NF. As far as holding POI, I never had an issue with the NF, but Marches are rock solid in that department. They might not be the clearest scope out there, but they are known for holding POI.[/B]
