And just how many ground lens were in that camera lens group. Looking through a camera is no way to judge a scope clarity. Comparing on a resolution board side by side.

Element Helix MIL
- Thread starter Dairyboy
- Start date
I own both Arken SH4 4-14 and the Element Helix MIL and I would say the Arken just slightly beats it by a small margin in my opinion. They both offer identical features but the Arken is FFP which I prefer, but honestly you cant go wrong with both. They are AWESOME scopes!

Have you looked through a Helix? I mean, it could just be that those videos are blurring the appearance of the scope and it isn’t blurry but crystal clear

I'm glad to see the Element Helix start to show up. If I ever save up enough to get a Daystate Red Wolf HP that is what I plan to put on it.

Also I can’t imagine Ted and all those other big names behind this putting their names behind this thing and being so involved in the development if they are Lame and not worthy, you know what I mean?

This is the only scope worthy of any of my guns. But that Nexus may be a good compromise for the HW30s.

Bahaha. I actually did laugh when I saw that...
I don’t have any of the Nexus or Helix and I have not personally looked through any of them. I have seen a lot of great reviews. Will it match up with 3-4K glass? No, but I don’t think they are built to at those price ranges. I am sure that Yo has a good collection of scopes well beyond what I have, but my point is that neither he or I can determine the quality with a video frame. I try to suspend judgement until I have seen the product first hand, or at least have a plethora of bad reviews.

I did notice the night and day difference in his scope cam video recording clarity when Hunter BobO (Bald eagle guy) changed scopes from Athlon to Nightforce. That's the very reason why I bought my Nightforce SHV exactly like his based on what I saw through his scope cam hunting videos that were awesome!

Where to buy them in stock right now that has the best return policy?
It has to be at least clearer than the Aztec Emeralds and Hawke Sidewinder 30s at the highest magnification and clearer than the TAC VECTORS and my lowly cheap but freak of naturishly crystal clear $200 Aim Sports Alpha6s and JSAR version and AT MINIMUM!!! the Discovery VT3 3-12x44 then I'm happy to keep it. No more chromatic aberration and or milkyness at max power please!

How's about I send anybody reading this whomever has this $399 Element scope to do a side by side with one of my $215 sale China Aim Sports Alpha6 4.5-27x50 and $299 sale JAPAN BUSHNELL TAC 5-15x40AO? Then post a comparison which is clearest in order of clarity? If it beats the $299 sale BUSHNELL TAC then it's as clear as the $699 JAPAN SWFA SS 3-15x42 and almost as clear (Like barely noticeable difference JAPAN VS JAPAN clear is clear not being up to European standards of clear though) as the $1260 Nightforce SHV.

Was he using the same scope cam? I would wager that you are probably right given your experience, but I am just playing their advocate.

Someone here will do that for sure. I would love to see the results. You are probably right, but I would love an objective answer

Great choice in scopes that you have!! Lol I'm real excited to hear there pretty similar. I am a big fan of the Arken FFP but do think for the airgun that I'm wanting the SFP for closer ranges. I got shipping info today on it!

Hi all
i received my Helix on Saturday and put it on my wildcat and am amazed how a scope In this price range could be this clear and bright
and seems to be a quality build. everything is very solid and smooth. I would say it’s better than my U.S.O TS-12. A definite winner in my book.

PM SENT to Oliver Queen and received reply.
The TAC Vector 3-12x for $215 at Edgun West or $170 Optics Planet FFP (10% off don't forget $153 net) or $132/$119 for SFP are more than 1/3 to almost 1/5 the price of that TS12 same scope as TAC Vectors which have better reticle and tracking and turret lines up better too see it to believe it. The Discovery VT3 version same factory from China no surprises also makes JSAR and Aim Sports Alpha6 that I do really admire due to unbelievable clarity.
