CRHX1028 And 1028 Lede

Trijicon has introduced its Credo and Credo HX 1-10x28mm riflescopes, utilizing a Brilliant Aiming Solution for any shooting scenario, from personal defense, to competition, to hunting. Engineered to perform from close to extended ranges, the 1-10x28mm features a first-focal-plane design and a light and slim, yet durable body.

Credo HX 1-10x28mm Reticle

The Segmented Circle Enhanced reticles utilized in the 1-10x28mm models offer an illuminated, segmented circle for close engagements at lower power, with a fine illuminated cross dot for more extended shots. There are also subtle wind holds within the reticle for more precise distant shots as needed. The reticles are based off the reticle in the U.S. Marine Corps Squad Common Optic (SCO) variant of the Trijicon VCOG.

The Credo 1-10x28mm sports fully multi-coated, broadband, anti-reflective glass, a 34mm tube and 28mm objective lens for excellent light transmission, true detail and color with zero distortion. The reticle features dual red/green user-selectable LED illumination with an “off” in between each setting for fast adjustment to any environment. Designed for speed and precision, the segment circle with cross dot reticle allows the shooter to quickly bracket targets and use up to 30 MRAD of windage and elevation holds without the need to dial. When dialing is preferred, the exposed elevation adjuster provides crisp, consistent clicks. Total elevation travel of 29 MRAD is available, and return to zero is precise and rock-solid on the exposed elevation turret.

The Credo 1-10x28mm features a durable matte finish and easy-grip controls that deliver fast adjustments, while a repositionable magnification lever accommodates different shooting positions and rifle configurations.

Meanwhile, the Credo HX 1-10x28mm riflescope offers the same construction and is designed with the serious hunter in mind. From dangerous game up-close and personal, to open country whitetails, the MOA-based Segmented Circle Enhanced illuminated reticle will provide the speed and accuracy needed for any shot.

Credo and Credo HX riflescopes are Alaska-to-Africa Tested to ensure performance from -20°F to 140°F, giving shooters and hunters supreme confidence in any climate. Each model is Solid Zero Tested and subjected to 5,000 rounds of heavy cartridge testing to ensure no reticle shift, while Drop Testing guarantees that every bump and bruise won’t result in a warranty claim. All models are Shock & Vibration Tested to take on recoil and the abuse of the field without failure. Finally, all models are Immersion Tested and dry-nitrogen filled to eliminate internal fogging in even the harshest environments.
