I am patiently waiting for mine to come in to replace my leupold vx5-3x15. @Formidilosus doing these reviews probably saved me three weeks of research and watching countless YouTube videos.

If this helps anyone. This is what this scope looks like mounted on the Tikka with Talley extra low bases (PN 720714). Pic of scope it is replacing for reference. There is only a 0.135” gap between the bolt handle and scope body during its throw (roughly the same distance between scope and barrel as well) — you can’t go much lower.

Updated.


Scope has 3,577 rounds on it with no major issue. Second Trijicon in a row to go 3,000 rounds without a failure.
You've talked about the reliability testing that manufacturers should implement (and that NF does). Given that Trijicon does this type of testing (on some models), are you starting to assume that the models that undergo that testing are g2g?

Form,

Are you planning on continuing this iteration of the evaluation similar to the ten mile?

Yes sir, if that is ok?

Quick one for ya Form- would you say there's any substantive difference in terms of reliability between the Credo HX 2.5-15x42 and the Tenmile 3-18x44? Obviously a few major differences in features, but it seems the Tenmile basically ran without a hiccup through every part of the eval

I did not see your question.

I don’t know about “assume”, but Trijicon’s scope are doing very well since the updates.

I don’t know, but I would guess nothing major. I have seen multiple Credo HX 2.5-15x’s how work correctly, as well as a dozen or so Tenmiles.

I know this was for form, but if you call trijicon and ask them, they will tell you the only difference between the credo and tenmile is the top end magnification. Anything over 16 is a tenmile. Glass, tube, internals are all the same.
