Trijicon Credo 2.5-15x42 Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Matte Black, MRAD Center Dot (Red), Side Focus Adjustment
Trijicon
The Trijicon Credo 2.5-15x56 MRAD rifle scope is a versatile magnified optic built for hunters and shooters who need reliable performance across shifting light and distance. This 30mm tube scope combines a wide 2.5x to 15x magnification range with a red illuminated center dot reticle, making it equally at home on a long-range hunting rifle or a precision bolt gun at the range. The side focus adjustment keeps your reticle sharp without breaking your sight picture, and the matte black finish resists glare in bright conditions while staying practical in the field.
What sets the Credo apart is its dedication to working in the real world. The exposed windage and elevation adjusters feature a zero stop, so you can return to your zero confidently without fumbling through rotations. The red illuminated reticle offers user-selectable brightness with an off position between each setting—dial in what the light demands, from overcast mornings to midday sun glare. The eyepiece diopter focuses to your individual vision, and the repositionable magnification lever adapts to your shooting position and rifle setup. Trijicon's design philosophy here is simple: tough glass, intuitive controls, no surprises.
Built to military standards and field-tested in demanding conditions, the scope delivers edge-to-edge clarity through fully multi-coated broadband anti-reflective glass. That means true color rendition and light transmission without the color distortion or vignetting that cheap coatings introduce. The matte finish and easy-grip controls are designed for fast adjustments when you need them, and the entire package is engineered to absorb the recoil and abuse that real hunting and shooting demand. Whether you're dialing for distance or trusting the hold-over marks, the Credo 2.5-15x56 gives you the optical clarity and mechanical reliability to make the shot.

Trijicon offers the Credo 2.5-15x56 in both first and second focal plane configurations. Confirm which version you're purchasing, as this affects how the reticle scales with magnification—first focal plane holds reticle subtension accuracy across all magnifications, while second focal plane subtensions are calibrated to a specific magnification (typically maximum). Check your product documentation to verify which you have.
Yes. The 2.5x to 15x magnification range, MRAD reticle with holdover marks, and 30mm tube make this scope well-suited to hunting at distance. The 2.5x lower end works for closer ranges and quick acquisition, while 15x provides the magnification needed to dial precise shots at extended range. The side focus and illuminated reticle give you the tools to shoot in variable light.
Yes, the red illuminated center dot features user-selectable LED brightness settings with an off position between each setting. This lets you adapt the reticle brightness to the light conditions—dial up brightness in low light, dial down in bright sun, or turn it completely off to use the reticle unaided in daylight.
The side focus eyepiece lets you adjust the reticle sharpness to your eye without turning the main eyepiece. This keeps your sight picture stable while you're dialing in focus, making it faster and easier to get a crisp reticle without breaking your shooting position.
