What You Need to Know About Scopes
Rifle scopes enable you to exactly align a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target over a range. They accomplish this through zoom by using a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s alignment can be dialed in for consideration of separate environmental elements like wind speed and elevation decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will land based upon the sight picture you are seeing using the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. A lot of contemporary rifle optics have about eleven parts which are located inside and on the exterior of the scope body. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, modification dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. See all eleven parts of scopes.
Rifle Glass Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Deciding upon the perfect type of rifle glass is based on what type of shooting you plan to do.
First Focal Plane Scope Info
First focal plane scopes (FFP) come with the reticle ahead of the zoom lens. This causes 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 amplified distance as they are at the non magnified distance. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at 100 yards with no “zoom” is still the identical tick at 100 yards with 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, far away types of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where estimations are small
- Experienced shooters who recognize their target “hold over” as well as “lead” ratios for their long guns
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and occupies more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Glass Facts
Second focal plane glass (SFP) come with the reticle behind the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to remain at the very same scale in relation to the volume of magnification being used. The outcome is that the reticle dimensions shift based on the zoom chosen to shoot over greater ranges because the reticle markings present various increments which differ with the zoom level. In the FFP illustration with the SFP glass, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick. These particular types of scopes are useful for:
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have increased time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most shots happen within much shorter ranges and spaces
- Shooters who choose a clearer optic picture without area taken up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Details on Rifle Scope Magnification
The quantity of scope zoom you require depends upon the style of shooting you desire to do. Almost every kind of rifle glass gives some amount of zoom. The volume of zoom a scope provides is identified by the size, thickness, and curves of the lenses inside of the rifle optic. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the opic. This means what the shooter is observing through the scope is magnified times the power element of what can typically be seen by human eyes.
Fixed Single Power Lens Rifle Optic Info
A single power rifle optic and scope uses a magnification number designator like 4×32. This suggests the zoom power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of scope can not adjust because it is fixed.
Variable Power Lens Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes can be adjusted between magnification levels. These types of scopes will list the magnification level in a configuration such as 2-10×32. These numbers suggest the magnification of the scope can be set in between 2x and 10x power. This always includes the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is achieved by making use of the power ring component of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Power and Range Correlations
Here are some recommended scope power settings and the distances where they can be successfully used. High power rifle scope glass will not be as effective as lower powered glass considering that too much magnification can be a bad thing. The exact same idea goes for extended ranges where the shooter needs to have increased power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Rifle Scope Lens Finishing
All state-of-the-art rifle glass lenses are layered. Lens coating can be an essential element of a shooting platform when thinking about high end rifle optics and scope systems.
HD Versus ED Rifle Optic Lens Coatings
Some scope brands likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens coverings which use various techniques, chemicals, polarizations, and components to draw out separate colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass.
Info on Single Finishing Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can also have various finishes applied to them. All lenses typically have at least some type of treatment or covering used to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can protect the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less helpful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single coated lens depends on the scope maker and how much you paid for it.
Some scope producers likewise make it a point to define if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” covered. This implies the lens has had several treatments applied to them. If a lens receives several treatments, it can establish that a producer is taking several actions to fight different environmental factors like an anti-glare coating, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finishing, followed by a hydrophilic finish. This also does not always imply the multi-coated lens is better than a single coated lens. Being “much better” depends upon the manufacturer’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of products used in creating the rifle scope.
Anti-water Lens Covering
Water on a scope lens does not help with keeping a clear sight picture through an optic whatsoever. Many top of the line or high-end optic makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finishing. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this type of treatment. It provides protection for the exterior of the Steiner scope lens so the water particles can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The result is that the water beads slide off of the scope to keep a clear, water free sight picture.
Choices for Mounting Scopes on Firearms
Installing solutions for scopes come in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually mounted to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also typically can be found in quick release variations which use manual levers which allow rifle shooters to rapidly install and remove the scope.
Hex Key Rifle Optic Ring Mounting Solutions
Normal, clamp design mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop style Picatinny scope installation rails on rifles. These types of scope mounts use a couple of different rings to support the optic, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which is created for long range precision shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which require a long lasting, sound mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Scope Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly take off a scope and attach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be switched out if they all use a similar design mount. These types of mounts come in handy for rifle platforms which are carried a lot, to remove the optic from the rifle for protection, or for optics which are used in between several rifles or are situationally focused.
Sealing and Gas Purging for Rifle Optic Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle glass can ruin a day on the range and your expensive optic by causing fogging and making residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of scopes prevent humidity from getting in the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Generally, these optics can be submerged underneath 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be plenty of wetness prevention for conventional use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you intend on taking your rifle on your motorboat and are worried about the scope still performing if it is submerged in water and you can still salvage the gun.
What to Know About Rifle Optic Tube Gas Purging
Another component of avoiding the accumulation of moisture within the rifle scope’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Considering that this area is currently taken up by the gas, the glass is less impacted by temperature shifts and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which could potentially permit water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to seek out.
