What You Need to Know About Optics
Rifle scopes allow you to specifically align a rifle at different targets by aligning your eye with the target over a range. They do this through magnifying the target by employing a set of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for consideration of separate natural factors like wind and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to understand exactly where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing with the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. The majority of contemporary rifle scopes and optics have around eleven parts which are located internally and outside of the scope. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. Learn about the eleven parts of optics.
Rifle Scope Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Considering the finest type of rifle optic is based around what type of shooting you plan to do.
First Focal Plane Glass
First focal plane optics (FFP) feature the reticle before the magnifying lens. This triggers the reticle to increase in size based upon the extent of magnification being used. The result is that the reticle measurements are the same at the enhanced distance as they are at the non amplified range. For example, one tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards without having “zoom” is still the very same tick at 100 yards with 5x “zoom”. These types of scopes are valuable for:
- Quick acquisition, far away types of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where computations are small
- Experienced shooters who know their aim point “hold over” plus “lead” ratios for their long guns
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and requires more visual sight space than a SFP reticle
Info About Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) include the reticle behind the magnification lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement.
- Long distance types of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who select a clearer optic sight picture with less area taken up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Details on Scope Zoom
The amount of magnification a scope supplies is figured out by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Single Power Lens Scope Facts
A single power rifle scope uses a magnification number designator like 4×32. This means the magnification power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this kind of scope can not adjust given that it is fixed.
Variable Power Lens Glass Info
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. The power adjustment is accomplished by using the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Optic Power and Range Correlation
Here are some recommended scope power levels and the distances where they could be effectively used. High power optics will not be as efficient as lower magnification level rifle scope glass considering that too much zoom can be a bad thing. The same concept applies to longer distances where the shooter needs to have increased power to see where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Finishing for Rifle Optics
All present day rifle optic lenses are covered. Lens coating is a significant aspect of a rifle’s setup when purchasing high end rifle optics and scope setups.
HD Versus ED Lens Coatings
Some scope makers also use “HD” or high-definition lens finishes which use different techniques, chemicals, polarizations, and components to draw out different colors and viewable quality through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” to signify the lens has extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Finishing Versus Multi-Coating for Rifle Optics
Different scope lenses can also have various finishes applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some type of treatment or covering applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic. Due to the fact that the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass, they require performance enhancing coatings. It is part of the carefully tuned optic. It requires a coating to be applied to it so that the lens will be efficiently functional in many types of environments, degrees of sunshine (full VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
Single coated lenses have a treatment applied to them which is typically a protective and enhancing multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can shield the lens from scratches while lowering glare and other less useful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the optic. The quality of a single layered lens depends upon the scope company and the amount you spent on it. Both are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope manufacturers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” covered. Being “much better” depends on the maker’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in developing the rifle scope.
Anti-water Lens Finish
Water on a lens does not help with maintaining a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Numerous top of the line or high-end scope producers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finish. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this sort of treatment. It deals with the exterior surfaces of the Steiner glass lens so the H2O molecules can not bind to it or create surface tension. The result is that the water beads sheet off of the scope to keep a clear, water free sight picture.
Rifle Glass Mounting Choices
Installing approaches for scopes are available in a few options. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These different kinds of mounts also generally come in quick release versions which use throw levers which permit rifle operators to quickly install and dismount the glass.
Hex Key Rifle Scope Rings
Standard, clamp-on style mounting optic rings use hex head screws to position to the flattop style Picatinny scope mount rails on rifles. These forms of scope mounts use a pair of individual rings to support the optic, and are normally made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are created for far away precision shooting. This kind of scope mount is great for rifle systems which need to have a long lasting, rock solid mount which will not shift despite just how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes. These are the design of mounts you really want to have for a devoted optics setup on a long distance hunting or hard target interdiction long gun which will rarely need to be changed or recalibrated. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can also be used on the mount screws to stop the hex screws from backing out after they are installed securely in place. An example of these mounting rings are the 30mm type made by the Vortex Optics brand. The set typically costs around $200 USD
Optic Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly remove a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. If they all use a similar design mount, several scopes can often be swapped out in the field. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect nicely to a flat top type Picatinny rail. This enables the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, removed from the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while maintaining the original sighting settings. These types of mounts come in convenient for rifles which are moved a lot, to remove the scope from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are used in between multiple rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics brand. It typically costs around $250 USD
Rifle Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle glass can ruin a day on the range and your costly optic by inducing fogging and producing residue inside of the scope’s tube. Many scopes protect against humidity from getting in the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Typically, these water-resistant scopes can be immersed within 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be ample moisture prevention for standard use rifles, unless you anticipate taking your rifle aboard watercrafts and are concerned about the optic still functioning if it goes over the side and you can still retrieve the gun.
Rifle Scope Gas Purging
Another component of avoiding the accumulation of wetness inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Since this area is currently occupied by the gas, the glass is less altered by temperature alterations and pressure differences from the external environment which may possibly enable water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to look for.
