Element titan min parallax

[cavedweller]

I as considering buying an element titan. But when I was checking the element specs, they listed minimum parallax as both 10 yards and 10 meters - it can’t be both!

10 yards is 9.14 meters
10 meters is 10.94 yards

If it in fact focuses correctly at 10 yards, it’s good for field target.
I just went through this with a new Arken scope which did not focus at 10 yards as advertised.

Can you Element Titan owners do a precise focus test for the Airgunners and tell us if it is 10 meters or 10 yards? It must be able to be set at max magnification and still focus clearly at 10 yards (range) to be as advertised. Money matters! Yes I know, in HFT 16X is max but this definitely reflects optical quality.

Element Titan focuses to 15 yards not 10. Yes, you are correct 10 yards don't equal 10 meters. But many scope manufacturers don't make that distinction but make the scopes focus to the shorter distance- yards.

thanks for this - oddly this a.m. when i was looking at one of the many spec sites it listed 10 yards and 10 meters. The good news is i won't waste money or time on a scope that does not parallax focus down to 10 yards. The search is real!

10 meters is what they have on the scope itself.

Sorry, there are two Titans: 5-25 and 3-18. The 5-25 is 15-yds and 3-18 is 10-yds.

thanks.... i'm sticking with the Argos gen2 for the moment.

well darn... that explains it.

I have 2 Element Nexus Scopes and they DO parallax focus to 10 yards! Correctly i might add.

Matt Drubber had a video for the Titan where is explained the Mil scopes are 10 meter and the MOA scopes are 10 yds and that they actually are both a little less then that.

I have the 5-25 and I can usably focus it down to 10 yards for HFT (I don't use it for that I actually use it to EFT). That's my "left-handed" test for a scope - could I use it in HFT. The parallax range on them is excellent and I used the 3-18 a friend let me borrow and it worked great for HFT.

I have 2 - nexus scopes and they both parallax focus to 10 yards.
