Overview
The Trijicon Credo HX is an illuminated hunting riflescope built around Trijicon's daylight-bright reticle technology, with turret and glass quality that reviewers compare directly to established hunting optics like the Leupold VX-5HD. The model number points to the 6-24x50 configuration within the Credo HX line.
Trijicon offers the Credo HX with a choice of red or green illuminated reticles, and buyers who compared both directly found the red noticeably brighter at the same illumination setting, with green needing a higher setting to reach comparable daylight visibility. The parallax adjustment reaches down to 10 yards, closer than many hunting scopes allow, and the reticle displays the MOA value of its hash marks at four different magnifications directly in the sight picture.
- Daylight-bright illuminated reticle
- Choice of red or green illumination
- Parallax adjustable to 10 yards
- MOA hash-mark readout at four magnifications
Who it's for
Hunters upgrading from a mid-tier scope who want daylight-bright illumination and are willing to weigh reticle color choice carefully. Less suited to buyers who want maximum illumination brightness at every setting, since even reviewers who liked the scope found the lowest brightness levels too dim in a dark room.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers moving up from brands like Leupold and Swamp Fox describe the glass and turrets as a clear step up, and several single out the reticle's ability to display MOA hash-mark values at different magnifications along with parallax adjustment down to 10 yards. The main gripes are dimmer green illumination compared to red at the same setting, a low-end brightness setting that's invisible in total darkness, and turrets that can shift off zero if not reset carefully.
