What You Need to Know About Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes permit you to exactly align a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target at range. They do this through magnification by employing a series of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in to take into account different environmental aspects like wind and elevation decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand exactly where the bullet will land based upon the sight picture you are seeing with the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. The majority of contemporary rifle optics have around eleven parts which are found internally and outside of the scope. These scope parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials, objective focus rings, and other elements. See all eleven parts of an optic.
Rifle Optic Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Picking the perfect type of rifle optic is based around what type of shooting you plan on doing.
About First Focal Plane Optics
First focal plane glass (FFP) include the reticle ahead of the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to increase in size based on the extent of magnification being used. The benefit is that the reticle measurements are the same at the magnified range as they are at the non amplified 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 types of scopes are valuable for:
- Quick acquisition, far away types of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where calculations are low
- Experienced shooters who know their target “hold over” plus “lead” correlations for their firearm
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and takes up more visual sight space than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Scopes
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle to the rear of the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to stay at the same overall size relative to the amount of zoom being used. The effect is that the reticle measurements adjust based upon the magnification employed to shoot over longer ranges due to the fact that the reticle markings represent various increments which fluctuate with the zoom level. In the FFP illustration with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These particular kinds of glass work for:
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most shots occur within much shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic sight picture without area taken up by the bigger FFP reticle
Zoom for Glass
The quantity of scope zoom you need on your glass depends upon the form of shooting you desire to do. Just about every style of rifle optic gives some amount of zoom. The level of magnification a scope provides is established by the diameter, thickness, and curves of the lens glass within the rifle optic. The magnifying level of the scope is the “power” of the scope. This suggests what the shooter is looking at through the scope is amplified times the power factor of what can normally be seen by human eyes.
Fixed Power Lens Scope Details
A single power rifle optic and scope uses a zoom number designator like 4×32. This suggests the magnification power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of optic can not change since it is fixed.
Variable Power Lens Rifle Scope Info
Variable power rifle scopes use enhanced power. The power modification is achieved by making use of the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Glass Power Level and Range Correlation
Here are some suggested scope powers and the ranges where they can be effectively used. Always remember that higher magnification scopes and optics will not be as efficient as lower magnification level scope and optics because excessive magnification can be a bad thing. The very same idea relates to longer ranges where the shooter needs to have enough power to see precisely where to properly aim the rifle.
Details on Rifle Scope Lens Coverings
All modern-day rifle scope and optic lenses are covered in special coatings. There are different types and qualities of glass lens coatings. Lens coating is a crucial element of a rifle’s setup when thinking about high end rifle optics and scope equipment. The lenses are one of the most vital parts of the scope considering that they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The finishing on the lenses offers protection to the lens surface area and assists with anti glare capabilities from excess sunshine and color perception.
About Glass Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some optic suppliers will also use “HD” or high-definition glass finishings that make the most of different procedures, polarizations, components, and chemicals to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable definition through the lens. This high-def coating is commonly used with higher density glass which decreases light’s capability to refract through the lens glass. Some scope producers use “HD” to describe “ED” signifying extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how certain colors are presented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic deviance or aberration which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration may be obvious around objects with hard edges and shapes as light hits the item from particular angles.
Details on Single Coating Versus Multi-Coating
Different optic lenses can even have various coatings applied to them. All lenses generally have at least some kind of treatment or finish applied to them before being used in a rifle scope or optic assembly. This is due to the fact that the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass. It is part of the carefully tuned optic. It needs to have a finishing put on it so that the lens will be optimally functional in numerous types of environments, degrees of sunshine (full light VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is normally a protective and boosting multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can preserve the lens from scratches while decreasing glare and other less useful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single covered lens depends upon the scope manufacturer and how much you spent paying for it. Both the manufacturer and amount are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope producers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” covered. This implies the lens has had several treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens gets several treatments, it can show that a maker is taking multiple actions to fight various environmental aspects like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finishing, followed by a hydrophilic finishing. This also doesn’t necessarily indicate the multi-coated lens is better than a single layered lens. Being “much better” hinges on the manufacturer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of materials used in constructing the rifle scope.
Rifle Glass Lens Anti-water Covering
Water on a lens doesn’t help with keeping a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Many top of the line and high-end optic makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic coating.
Choices for Installing Optics on Long Guns
Mounting solutions for scopes come in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually mounted to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also normally are made in quick release variations which use manual levers which allow rifle shooters to rapidly install and dismount the scopes.
Optic Mounts with Hex Key Rings
Standard, clamp-on style mounting optic rings use hex head screws to fix to the flattop style Picatinny scope mount rails on the tops of rifles. These forms of scope mounts use two detached rings to support the scope, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum or similar materials which are made for long distance accuracy shooting. This kind of scope mount is effective for rifle systems which need to have a resilient, rock solid mount which will not shift no matter just how much the scope is moved or jarring the rifle takes. These are the design of mounts you really want to have for a dedicated scope setup on a long distance hunting or competitors firearm that will almost never need to be changed or recalibrated. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can also be used on the mount’s screws to protect against the hex screws from wiggling out after they are installed safely in place. An example of these rings are the 30mm style from Vortex Optics. The set generally costs around $200 USD
Quick-Release Cantilever Optic Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly remove a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. If they all use a similar style mount, several scopes can also be switched out on the range. The quick detach mount style is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers fasten securely to a flat top style Picatinny rail. This allows the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while keeping the original sighting settings. These types of mounts come in convenient for rifles which are transferred between vehicles a lot, to take off the optic from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are employed between several rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics manufacturer. It generally costs around $250 USD
About Scope Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle scope can destroy a day of shooting and your pricey optic by triggering fogging and producing residue inside of the scope tube. Many scopes prevent moisture from getting in the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant.
Glass Gas Purging
Another component of avoiding the buildup of wetness within the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this area is currently occupied by the gas, the optic is less impacted by temperature alterations and pressure differences from the external environment which may possibly permit water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
