DEON Optical Corporation is the Japanese manufacturer behind March Scopes, one of the most respected names in high magnification precision optics. Designed and assembled in Japan, March scopes are known for their meticulous engineering, exceptional optical clarity, and extremely precise mechanical tracking. The brand earned its reputation in disciplines such as F Class, Benchrest, and Field Target, where extreme magnification and reliability are essential. In recent years March has also expanded into the PRS space with purpose built optics designed for modern precision rifle competition, bringing the same level of precision and innovation to a wider range of shooting disciplines.
The March-FX 5-42×56 Gen II PRS Edition (D42HV56WFML-G2) was developed specifically for PRS and NRL competition where speed, field of view, and reliable tracking matter most. Built around a wide angle 26° eyepiece that provides roughly 30 percent more field of view than standard models, the scope maintains strong optical clarity across its 8.4x magnification range while the High Master lens system with Super ED glass improves image quality and control near maximum elevation. The scope features fully writable elevation and windage turrets that allow shooters to mark stage data directly on the turret and erase it after the stage, along with a simple zero set system for fast adjustments. It also introduces the FML-WBR reticle designed by PRS competitor Brandon Rudge, a reticle created specifically for practical competition that prioritizes speed, clarity, and efficient hold references without cluttering the sight picture. The scope is built on a 34 mm tube, uses a fully machined aluminum body, incorporates March’s Temperature Anti-Drift lens system, and maintains the mechanical precision the brand is known for in demanding match environments.
