Element Optics Helix Gen II 6-24X50 FFP APR-2D 1/4 MOA 30mm Rifle Scope
The Element Optics Helix Gen II 6-24x50 FFP APR-2D 1/4 MOA 30mm is a proper step-up scope for shooters who want more detailed holdover capability without jumping into overly complex optics. The 6–24x magnification gives you plenty of reach for long-range work, while still being usable at lower power for general field or range shooting. The 50mm objective lens and fully multi-coated glass keep the image bright and sharp, even when lighting conditions start to drop. The APR-2D reticle is a more detailed tree-style layout in the second focal plane, giving you extra reference points for wind and elevation while keeping the view clean and consistent. You also get precise 1/4 MOA turrets, a tool-free zero-stop system, and reliable tracking that makes dialing repeatable and predictable. It’s a strong all-round option for target shooting, long-range hunting, or anyone wanting a bit more data in the reticle without going fully tactical-heavy.

The HELIX GEN 2 continues the legacy of our original HELIX line of riflescopes, with industry-leading reliability and performance taken to the next level with new features and further design improvements.
The important things come first: Reliable tracking, intelligent reticles, innovative features and a user-friendly turret system. The turret system is tool-free and now features 20 MOA per revolution. The zero-stop mechanism ensures you never lose track of where you are, and the First Focal Plane reticle ensures precise reticle calibration at all magnifications. Optically, the familiar 4x erector system is complemented by a new design allowing for a larger field of view and a more forgiving eye-box. Stringent quality control checks are in place to ensure repeatable performance under harsh conditions, and if something goes wrong, the Platinum Lifetime Warranty has you covered!
