FG - The only inline I ever owned was a CVA Optima Pro in the Black/blue configuration. That rifle never failed me and was plenty accurate. I would assume the SS/camo would be just as good if not better. I just never got hooked on the inline route and have stuck with the traditional rifles.

Both handle well and feel good in my hand. The ones I looked at had good fit and finish. I think both have the Bergara barrels so quality should be good. If it were me I would lean toward the Elite simply because of the multi barrel option and the fact that it's been out longer.

I like the high priced one, since it is your money, but in reality they all will shoot excellent and about the same. It is beauty you are choosing not function.
