Had a look at one of these at GC shop last week. Seems like a good set up & sensible price point. Amy one running one of these ? How do you find the optical performance? Pretty well impossible to tell looking at them in the shop. How would you rate the glass vs VX5 for example?
I love mine, great scope packed with features, haven't got a vx5 to compare it too but I think it performs pretty damn good.Quote:

Thanks Danny, don’t know how i missed that one when I searched for Element Helix HDLR ? Good to read first hand comments from a knowledgeable user. Have you had chance to test out the low light performance?
Like I said, I haven't had a chance to side by side compare it with anything (top notch) in low light, but I found it pulls more than enough light in, in conditions I'd be happy to shoot in as far as low light is concerned.Quote:

It was easily better than the Monarch and at least equal to the AMG if not slightly better imo but not really apples with apples if ya know what I mean.
It's not vx5 price but I think for the money it punches well above it's price point. I have no plans to replace it.
If it's of any consequence my mate with the AMG was impressed enough to buy 1 as well to put on his finnlight 7mm rem mag.
I have 1 and as dannyb has said for the money they are hard to beat I don't have a vx5 but have the delta titanium hd 4-24 and there isn't much between them. Had a burris 3-15 signature and my personal experience I like the helix
