Credo HX, Accupoint or Tenmile HX

[wilehunting]

Hi all, I'm currently considering one of these three scopes for my 280ai;

Trijicon Accupoint 2.5-12.5x42mm with green dot duplex,
Trijicon Credo HX 2.5-15x42mm with MOA cross reticle,
Trijicon Tenmile HX 3-18x44mm with MOA tree reticle.

All are similar weights, sizes and magnifications,

The Accupoint has no battery and is illuminated by trillium and an adjustable aperture on the ocular housing feeding the fiber optics but no parallax adjustment,

The Credo is battery illuminated with a red only reticle and has the option the of using the MOA marks but is sfp and has adjustable parallax,

The Tenmile is battery illuminated and has the option of green or red illumination along with a MOA tree reticle that is in Ffp and has adjustable parallax.

I don't expect to be shooting beyond 300yds so I don't think I necessarily need a MOA reticle or an adjustable parallax but both could possible by useful, the Tenmile is about $600 more than the other two but I'm willing to pay it for any real actual advantage in lens quality, durability and features.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe; which one and why?

Thank you

I have both the Credo and a Tenmile. Got the Credo on my 280AI and the Tenmile on my 6.5PRC. Both are good scopes. To me, the glass is the same. From what I have read, the difference between the 2 is only the magnification. Everything else is the same.

I have the Accupoint and Tenmile. I prefer the battery option. Lately I experienced not so bright dot with the Accupoint.

Last trip, the Accupoint topped rifle took a flying lesson off the ledge on the porch from 30 mph gust. Rifle landed on the steps then on the ground.

Zero got all whacked out. Re-zeroed then did the box test, it checked good.

The tenmile parallax went wacko for whatever reason. It took all the way past infinity to the stop to be parallax free at 200.

Initiated RMA. Trijicon CS is awesome. Got updates at every step/stop where and what is the status. Finally they decided to send me a new one... no charge. Replacement on the way.
