I had a NF 5.5-22x56 on my general hunting rifle but found it too heavy so went to a March 2.5-22 Tacticle. Personally I dont rate the glass as high as the NF, and it certainly wont pull in the light like the big 56mm objective, but as has been said already it is a compromise. It has good bottom end magnification at 2.5 and great top range for when conditions allow. Weight compares with the Leupold Mark 4's. I think I read on the other forum last night that March are looking at bring out a 2.5-25x52 model. Depending on the weight, that would be about perfect IMO! Time will tell I guess, and i'm sure other manufacters will increase their line up also.
