I cant seem to find the major difference between the two scopes and why the name change?  Credo?

What I've read is the reticle has changed. The center dot or cross is smaller especially at 8x. The scope had both green AND red reticles and they revamped the scopes magnification throw lever. This is what I've read hopefully someone more knowledgeable can chime in

The whole situation is unecessarily confusing on Trijicons part, reminds me of CMMG's renamed/rebranded line up.

I will say that the cross reticle is FKing massive at 6-8x on the Accupower.. However the mill scale, while still not that large at 8x, seems usable to me at further distances.

Also, the mil scale is visible AND useful from 3x on up vs other FFP LPVO I'm evaluating right now. (XTR II 1-8 FFP, Accupower 1-8 FFP and XTR II 1.5-8 DFP comparison post to come very soon)

The reticle is definitely thick, but if mine is cranked up and I need to be so precise that it’s an issue, I just dial .5 mil up and hold on the top of the crosshair.

Agree, I can’t keep track of all the new lines Trijicon released.

The differences are that the credo is supposed to have a smaller center cross as that was a major complaint of the accupower line, and it has both red and green illumination as opposed to one or the other.

Yup, I'm stealing that shit like Bernie Sanders. Might even put it in a user manual at some point. Brilliant.

Funny that recently InRange used a 9-Hole Review clip to reinforce that 6:00 hold is superior with irons.
