The Helix Gen II 4-16x44 FFP MPR-1C MRAD builds on its proven predecessor with second-generation upgrades.
Redesigned optical systems, premium German glass for 12% more light transmission, a wider field of view and edge-to-edge sharpness, a new light and compact body plus a more forgiving eye box.
Ergonomics are refined via a larger, low-friction parallax knob and tactile turrets featuring zero-stop elevation and a capped windage turret.
The 44 mm objective lens and the 30 mm main tube are in a 350 mm body, aircraft-grade aluminum chassis that’s waterproof, fog proof and shockproof.
Element Optics - Everything you need to focus further!
The Helix Gen II picks up where the original Helix left off, marrying industry leading durability with a suite of second-generation refinements.
At its heart sits upgraded German Schott glass, boosting light transmission by roughly 12 percent
The parallax knob has grown in diameter, glides with silky-smooth resistance and delivers finer click-by-click control, while the entirely redesigned turrets now boast beefed-up diameters, crisp tactile feedback, an exposed elevation zero-stop and hunter-friendly capped windage adjustment (tool-free turret that clicks 1/10 MRAD per revolution), so you’ll always know exactly where you’re dialed in.
Around the eyepiece, the diopter range has been stretched from +2/–2 to +3/–2.5, and the new aperture ring gives you extra punch in glaring, high-contrast light.
The First Focal Plane (FFP) reticle increases or decreases with the target as the magnification changes, while the time-tested 4x erector tube has been redesigned to deliver a wider field of view and a forgiving eye-box.
Every scope undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure rock-solid repeatability under the toughest conditions.
All these upgrades live in a lean, 350 mm-long, 808 g aircraft-grade aluminum chassis that remains fully waterproof, fog proof and shockproof.
With a sharper image through better glass, improved ergonomics and thoughtful enhancements, this second generation is a refinement tailored to both precision shooters and hunters.

MPR-1C MRAD Reticle
DESIGN FEATURES
MPR stands for “Mid-Power Reticle”. This reticle is designed specifically to get the best out of mid-power magnification ranges, with features that enhance performance at both the low end and the high end of the available range.
INTELLIGENT FLOATING FEATURES
The fine centre dot provides a precise aim point, while the thicker floating cross just outside it remains clearly visible even at minimum zoom. The floating cross also creates finer 0.25 MRAD divisions along both axes, allowing for more precise holds close to center without the need for extra hashes.
NUMBERED MARKINGS
Numbers on the vertical axis allow shooters to quickly find hold points under pressure.
TAPERED BARS
Bars on the left, right & bottom of the reticle taper out to the edge of your field of view, drawing your eye to the centre at all magnifications without becoming too thick or thin.
New to this reticle; the tapered section extends deep into the main reticle itself, thickening the line closer to the center and making it more visible.
