Premium First Focal Plane Scope for All-Range Precision


Trijicon Credo All Purpose Hunting Scope 1-8x28 with LED delivers the tactical versatility and optical excellence that serious hunters and marksmen demand when every shot counts. Whether you're tracking whitetails through dense timber at dawn or engaging targets across open meadows at 400 yards, this first focal plane scope ensures your reticle measurements remain accurate throughout the entire magnification range. The 28mm objective lens and 34mm tube diameter provide superior light transmission and enhanced internal adjustment range, giving you the edge during those critical low-light moments when trophy animals are most active.

Experience the confidence that comes from Proven Optic's expert support and purpose-driven mission to advance justice through every purchase. This variable power hunting scope combines Trijicon's legendary durability with innovative dual red/green illumination, exposed locking turrets, and Japanese LOW OEM precision manufacturing. Every scope sold directly supports Proven Justice's work with crime victims, making your investment in premium optics a meaningful contribution to safer communities across the nation.

Who's This For?

Perfect for experienced hunters and tactical professionals who demand versatility across multiple engagement ranges. This first focal plane scope excels for whitetail hunters transitioning between thick cover shots at 50 yards and open field shots at 300+ yards, competitive three-gun shooters requiring rapid magnification changes, and law enforcement officers needing both close-quarters capability and precision identification at distance.

Not ideal for dedicated long-range precision shooters or budget-conscious beginners. If you primarily engage targets beyond 600 yards, a higher-magnification scope with parallax adjustment offers superior optical performance. Similarly, new shooters may find the advanced features of this variable-power hunting scope overwhelming compared to simpler fixed-power alternatives.

Key Features

28mm Objective Lens — Largest in class for enhanced light gathering and superior exit pupil performance during critical dawn and dusk hunting hours

34mm Tube Diameter — Provides 29.1 MRAD total adjustment range and increased structural rigidity for precise windage and elevation corrections

Dual Red/Green LED Illumination — User-selectable brightness with 5 red and 5 green settings plus off detents for optimal reticle visibility in any lighting condition

First Focal Plane Design — MRAD measurements remain accurate throughout the entire 1-8x magnification range for consistent holdover calculations

Exposed Locking Turrets — Tool-free windage and elevation adjustments with 0.1 MRAD precision clicks that lock to prevent accidental shifts during transport

Multi-Coated Broadband Glass — Fully anti-reflective coatings maximize light transmission and deliver edge-to-edge clarity with zero distortion across the entire field of

The Expert Says

Strengths: Exceptional optical clarity surpasses its price point, thanks to superior light transmission from the 28mm objective lens and 34mm tube construction. Military-grade durability withstands extreme conditions while a generous eyebox forgives shooter positioning better than most 1-8x competitors.

Limitations: Weight remains the primary trade-off at 25.6 ounces compared to lighter alternatives, and battery life averages 39-94 hours depending on illumination setting. While this first focal plane scope excels across most applications, dedicated long-range precision shooters may prefer higher magnification options.
