After a lot of research, this is the one for me - Trijicon Credo HX CRHX624 1-6x24mm LPVO Rifle Scope, 30mm Tube, Second Focal Plane

Needed a new LPVO for my AR, and I spent a month or so doing research. I watched a lot of review videos, read customer reviews, and talked to others in the firearm community. In the end, the Trijicon Credo HX won out. The glass is clear and distortion-free at any magnification. The illumination is very adjustable and effective. I like the segmented circle when it is zoomed out. Helps me get on target quickly for close range. When zoomed in, the reticle gives me elevation marks and a dot for precision shots. Zoom adjuster is very smooth and easy to use. Would highly recommend this LPVO for anyone looking for a great optic for close to medium range distances.
