I've shot the as Aztec optics 1st focal plane for quite some time in have been very happy with it. I decided to try out the element helix Because it seems that all the major players in air gunning Are using it. To tell you the truth, I think I like my Aztec optic just as much as the helix. Both are very good quality and offer great value.

I feel like a lot of Elements are given out for free as a marketing thing. They probably are good scopes but I’m guessing that’s why so many are using them in videos.

I think Maineic nailed it , also some of the guys doing the reviews talk them up big because they get them sent to them for free but won’t admit to that haha.

I’ve been shooting field target with my Aztec (second focal plane) for a number of years now and have done well. I have never tried an Element Scope. Someday I’ll take a look at one I am sure, but I’m happy with my Aztec for now.

I love my Aztecs for sure. It's good to know that the Helix is just as good. Thanks for taking the time to post your findings.

I have Helix 6-24x50SFP on Veteran standard cal.22 and Hawke Sidewinder 6.5-20x44 on Cricket cal.22 I have to say Helix is better. I own sidewinder almost 7 years now and helix one mount so that is my observation...
