The newest March Dual Reticle has advantages of both SFP and FFP reticles. It has the convenience of the FFP reticle scale which magnifies and reduces according to the magnification and the usability of the SFP reticle with the constant thickness (to the eye not the scale value) of the line as the magnification changes.
Placing the daylight (bright fibre) dot illumination on the Second Focal plane reticle ensures that the illuminated dot is usable across the entire magnification range; from a dot sight at low magnifications to a precise illuminated dot for long range precision shooting at higher magnifications.
This video by EDgunUSA shows how the Dual reticle (best of both, FFP + SFP) works. In it you can see that only the hashmark (FFP) reduces and enlarges its size while the center dot and the cross lines (SFP) remain its size.
The center fiber dot is bright in the daytime as well.
Side focus is adjustable from 10 yard to infinity.
Blue numbers are for the elements on the FFP. The perceived size of these elements change as you turn the magnification up or down such that, on the reticle, these elements always cover the same percentage of the target. When you increase the magnification, the target appears larger and so do the lines or points on the reticle. This also applies to the distance between any vertical or horizontal hash marks.
Brown numbers are for the elements on the SFP. This elements are fixed on the SFP and remain unchangeable to the eye throughout the entire magnification range. Therefore, they cover less of the target as the power is increased. The target image becomes larger yet, to the eye, the reticle line stays the same size.
