Will March Scopes Still Sell

Since Kelby no longer sells March scopes do you think the sales will go down even if they are sold by someone else not as well known? As we all know Kelby is known for the finest of products
 
If there are no quality issues or drama involved with Kelbys, I'd think that the March scope is gtg having made their bones some years back, not a new entry to the market.

IF - there are other behind the lines things like supply, quality or personality issues, then it would be dependent on the type and depth of the problems.

I know not of anything mentioned above but I don't run/shoot in those circles.
 
I think March will increase their presence in the USA. Bullets.com (Grizzly) is an excellent company known for their customer service.

Not as well known? You obviously haven't a clue as to how long Shiraz has been in business :o

I am only now considering a March scope BECAUSE of Shiraz!

Actually I drink Crown, but it appears that you joined the forum to do a little trolling.
 
There fine scopes. I just for the first time shot with one a few weeks ago.

I am going to shoot with it again, then maybe at that time I will compare the March vs. BR NightForce's.

The only thing I can say now is at time while shooting, the mirage was very heavy. I didn't realize much difference in this condition! ;)

I don't think their going anywhere at this time.

Check out his other posts. It may take some time to decipher them.

Pretty tough to check them out. He (or a moderator) seems to delete them all. Judging by the two posts remaining, he doesn't like grizzly because they won't ship to California.

March, Nightforce ,Leupold.....we all have our favorites just like Chevy, Ford, or Dodge the debate will go on forever. Will they still sell? Of course. March fans will still buy them regardless of who the seller will be. Will March still be around ten or twenty years from now? Who knows.

Probably yes in the US but not that much elsewhere as prices are simply to steep and there is more and more competition from other manufacturers. March edge for now is on its weight in other aspects there are other scopes with better glass , more forgiving eyebox and parallx . Considering how many are for sale barely used that kinda confirms that they are not for every ones eyes.

Sir,
Could you rewrite your post in order that I can understand. March has very strong sales in Europe and in Asia. Two very strong distributors handle sales there.
 
March costs way to much in Europe people are being ripped off.
Number of Euro scopes have better optical preformance some makedly so ,now days there are enough high magnifications alternatives for F class and long range . Only real advantage it holds over euro scopes is in weight and having the fixed magnification Br scopes.

FT and Tactical March scopes are not even contenders for top spot.

Remark in terms of used March sales, i do not know if you can find any other high end optic so frequently for sale barely used or new one these and other precision shooting oriented forums only other optic that could rival them might be specific line of 2013-14 NF 15-55x scopes.

Micmac,

I am thinking about buying a March scope, is it possible for you to point me to a scientific evaluation of different scopes against March that will highlight the aspects you just enumerated?
 
Try actually looking trough some.My eyes do not like the high mag models i shot an 8-80x56 and a 10-60x52 on RFBR rifle couple of times

Have you ever found near scientific test of riflescopes?

Maybe this one, but the scopes tested are not relevant to precision shooter . http://precisionrifleblog.com/2014/09/19/tactical-scopes-field-test-results-summary/
 
Micmac - I just won the Canadian National Championship yesterday using my March scope. Have been using March scopes for 7 years plus and own 13 of them that I actually bought from Kelbly's.

Please tell us you have some actual experience from which you have gleaned your knowledge that you wish to impart upon us. Unless, of course, you believe everything you read on the internet.

Yes, I look through a March every time I take a shot, and that is many thousands every year!
