Awesome entry level scope for various shooting needs. - Element Optics Helix 6-24x50mm 30mm Tube First Focal Plane Rifle Scope
Charles Shanaberger's Review of Element Optics Helix 6-24x50mm 30mm Tube First Focal Plane Rifle Scope
This was my first Element optics scope, and also the cheapest of the 3 I currently own. I presently resides on top of my Impact M3 for 100 YD benchrest use, which it does good at. The optics are above average for this price class, but are by no means top level. The areas this scope excels at it it's tracking and turret system which is way above it's price class. The scope once zeroed, and with the use of a good ballistic app and range finder is just dead on every time. The Zero stop is a nice featureI have come to depend on and look for in all rifle scope purchases now, once you get used to using it, the feature becomes very useful in situations were you are distracted or stressed and cannot remember how many revolutions you have made.
My biggest issue with this scope is the reticle is very small, good for hitting tiny targets at distance, not so good for quick target acquisition.
Pros:
excellent turrets and tracking
An above average scope in it's price class
Cons:
Reticle is Tiny, not good for fast target acquisition.
Glass is good but not outstanding.
Best Used for:
Benchrest in well lit environments
Target\varmint shooting at distance where no video or Photo's are taken through the scope.
Would Recommend:
Yes
