There is only one I found with a 24 power zoom. It is listed above. It is also illuminated and under 22 ounces.
Most scopes that I saw under 25 ounces have a 16 to 18 zoom max. I like a little more zoom.
I have the March Genesis scope for my ELR rifle and it is fantastic. I look forward to seeing how this will do on my new light hunting rifle.

The March F 3-24 does not have the same High Master glass as the Genesis. So be forewarned, optical clarity is not the same.
That is the reason I sold my March F 3-24×52 and purchased another TT315M. I will take 9x less top end magnification for the clarity and color of the TT all day long.

I have now added a March FX 4.5-28×52WA with the High Master glass, and it is world's better than the F 3-24×52.

I was replying to the list made by Lance.

Thank you.
The reviews seemed to indicate that the glass is great. But they did not compare it to the high master.
I really wanted light weight. I hope this fits the bill. If not my son in law has a nice scope and I'll figure out something else.

Honestly, if you don't jump on that deal, you are missing out. That is a no-brainer.

I'm almost leaning this way. I know it's a heavy scope but quality is hard to beat

In my findings, the TT525P is THE top of the food chain in optics.
Just make sure it is legit for that $3200 price. They are $4800-6400 new from retailers.

I believe it's a first gen moa one or something with the moa-er reticle

Final thought.
When I purchased 6 Kahles scopes for my rifles (don't hate - I busted my *** to get where I am) I wanted the absolute best glass I could find - Kahles is a Swaro company - the glass is the best that swaro makes. Coupled with the best internals and quality control available. Look, if you are going to spend your hard earned dollars, get hands on with them all...if you can. Rare to find one shop that has them.

When you look at pro shooters, most of them are sponsored by Vortex and Leupold and they lead the list of what they shoot, although my sense is most of us regular guys like them too. Not far behind is zero compromise, tangent, Kahles, and NF...

If I had to do it all over again I would go Kahles, SC, and NF would be my force rank - its your money - do what YOU want

At least two of those you listed are SFP. I believe the comment you replied to was in response to the sub 32oz FFP options.

Which 2?

2.5-10 NXS
2.5-10 Polar (seems the only Polar still made is the 4-16x56)

Nice! If it is legit, you will be VERY happy with it.

Ahhh...I stand corrected--sorry you just have 8 choice under 30 oz instead of 10. I'm not a Nightforce guy--I have one ACTer 4x16 is the only one I own--and it's FFP. I only have 9 SFP scopes on rifles now.

The reason there are so many Leupold and Vortex in PRS is sponsorship. If someone was to give me free scopes, I would probably run them too.

Everyone's eyes are different. To me, Kahles, while a great scope, does not quite compare optically to TT, ZCO, and S&B. On par with NF ATACR and March Migh Master. Better than NXS and NX8 glass by quite a bit. Definitely better than the 1st gen K624i used to be.

Kahles tracking has been spot on, and very durable. Great reticles too.

I ment z5. Fat fingers and didn't proof read
