I looked at the 1-10x24 and it's a fabulous piece of kit but I personally don't have a use for it.
Surprisingly bright, interesting, scope but clearly a tactical piece.

I think and therefore...... I refuse to steal someone else's quote to try to sound more erudite or profound than I actually am.

I'm afraid not sir.... would you not be concerned that there might not be enough light coming in for HFT?
2-16x32 might be better bet if they could be persuaded to make such a beasty.

Know both above listed are used for HFT the 1-10 and an F class 3-24FFP that gives a lot more depth than any other scope even on 14 mag.
Glad you got one then Russ, told you Gary was exemplary in customer service, cant wait to get mine back hope it aint next year.
I understand the relationship between objective size and magnification and their effect on depth of field, I went for SFP as I wanted a fine Ret.
have only just mounted my 2.5-25x32 on my HFT rig and will be setting it up this Saturday for a Sunday shoot.
Couple of questions, how does SFP and FFP compare (for the same scope magnification and objective) for depth of field?
And on the 3-24x32 FFP how "big" is the ret in the scope view (I have only seen images at 3x and 24x)?
Cheers

at 3 or 4x it's frankly too small for me, but it will work well enough for up-close shot.
I like it best around 12-16x where it's a bit larger than normal reticules but the aiming points are still super usable and at full whack, well for me its still ok....
...to give you a sense of scale the center dot at 24x appears a good bit smaller than the .25" dot in the middle of my 1" Dayglow targets at 30 yards.
...at around 12x you can see the core reticule
Does that help?

Brilliant mate thanks.
To give me a feel for the Ret size, I can see on the March web site that at 24x the vertical scale the number 8 is just at the bottom of the view, at what magnification does the numbers 10,12 and 14 just touch the bottom of the view?
If I was to use it for HFT at say 10x can you see all the numbers on the verticle scale?
I was going to apologise for asking you to go and play with your scope - but I know you need an excuse so I wont
Cheers
