Credos have an excellent reputation for durability and quality. Far better than a comparable scope from anyone else in its class. They are made by Light Optical Works in Japan.
Here is a review of the Credo 3-9x40 getting the ever-living-sh!t kicked out of it:

Pretty good review and they abused the scope well. Should handle regular hunting abuse just fine.
I was set on the credo 1-6 sfp before the fun police started throwing dyck missiles at everyone.
Brass facts says it is a total sleeper in the market. And there was another video by a guy who continuously dropped it as a test and it held up.
What not go for the 2-10 though?

I ended up just buying a few Trijicons (Huron, Accupoint and a Credo) for various rifles, all 3-9's. Some of the sponsors have some really good pricing lately on them.
They all look and feel great, I haven't had a chance to get them to the range, but looking outdoors with them the glass looks clean and bright to me. I bought them based on their durability reputation and I like the features/spec/price point.
The Credo is nice, the reticle is quite fine (precision hunter), illumination works great. Only thing I don't like is the integrated throw lever, might interfere with your bolt throw (on a bolt action), but I knew that going into it.

Barrel and Hatchet (youtube) covered the Credo a bunch last year, I believe. If I recall correctly they both really enjoyed it.
Tenda, CSC, and SFRC are all showing Trijicon scopes in stock (out of the vendors I frequent). I think Tenda has the best prices posted on at least some of the models.
Their 1" scopes are excellent for use cases where there is a size/weight budget (where a typical 3-9x40 would be perfect), I would pick them over any other 1" scope that isn't a Swarovski (and maybe even then, the Trijicons can deal with some absolute punishment).
A 3x9 is plenty for what I intend to use it for, mainly deer in the timber. Its going on a 300 savage.
