“The South African Open Championships and the F Class World Championships 2023 held at the General de Wet Range, Bloemfontein presented the most challenging conditions that I have ever shot in. To say this range is difficult is an understatement. We witnessed chilly mornings, baking mid-afternoon heat, biblical thunderstorms, hail and the rapid downpour of heavy rains, just to name a few… With rapidly changing conditions, I opted to solely use my March scope, rather than my spotting scope, to read mirage and pay attention to the flags. At times we witnessed wind brackets of more than 6 MOA for our F-TR rifles. The rifle, load and March scope worked like a charm and helped me maintain high spirits, shoot consistently and also helped me to pick a bronze medal and merit point competing against the world’s elite. All of my current F-TR rifles have a March scope fitted and without a doubt, all of my new rifles will have a March scope. The quality of these scopes and the customer service of March UK (pre & post sale) are second to none.”

Kat was using the March 10-60×52 SFP Riflescope with the MTR1 reticle. We congratulate him on these achievements and wish him the very best of luck for the upcoming F Class season!
