Tangent theta or ZCO 5x

Hard choice there. Everybody I know that's used a Tangent Theta swears by the glass and tracking, but the ZCO has a huge following too. I don't think you can really go wrong with either one.
 
Is one better than the other when it comes to using the parallax adjustment to detect mirage/wind? I notice NF ATACR's are better than NXS, for example.

The TT is kind of weird. It has the most forgiving parallax of any scope I have ever shot behind. Once parallax is set for past 400 or so, I don't have to adjust again out to 1700+ for reticle moving on target or target being in focus. But you can see mirage excellent to judge wind.

The ZCO I have to keep adjusting as I go out further until I hit about 1000.
