What You Need to Know About Optics
Rifle scopes allow you to precisely align a rifle at different targets by aligning your eye with the target over a distance. They accomplish this through zoom using a series of lenses within the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adapted for consideration of many natural aspects like wind speed and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand precisely where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are viewing with the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the target. Most contemporary rifle scopes have about eleven parts which are found within and externally on the scope. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation dials, focus rings, and other parts. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle glass.
About Glass Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” style of scopes. The form of focal plane an optic has determines where the reticle or crosshair is located in relation to the optic’s zoom. It simply indicates the reticle is located behind or before the magnification lens of the optic. Looking for the most desired kind of rifle glass is based on what sort of hunting or shooting you anticipate undertaking.
Info on First Focal Plane Scopes
First focal plane scopes (FFP) come with the reticle in front of the zoom lens. This causes the reticle to increase in size based upon the level of magnification being used. The benefit is that the reticle measurements are the same at the magnified range as they are at the non magnified range. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at 100 yards with no “zoom” is still the identical tick at one hundred yards with 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes are beneficial for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting situations where computations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who know their target “hold over” as well as “lead” equations for their weapon
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and takes up more visual sight space than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Glass
Second focal plane optics (SFP) come with the reticle behind the magnifying lens. This triggers the reticle to stay at the exact same size in relation to the quantity of zoom being used. The result is that the reticle measurements evolve based on the magnification employed to shoot over longer distances since the reticle markings present distinct increments which vary with the zoom. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick reticle measurement. These particular types of optics work for:
- Long distance kinds of shooting where shooters have increased time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most shots occur within much shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who would like a clearer optic picture without space used up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Details on Rifle Scope Magnification
The quantity of magnification a scope provides is determined by the diameter, thickness, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Info About Fixed Single Power Lens Glass
A single power rifle scope will have a zoom number designator like 4×32. This means the magnification power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of optic can not adjust considering that it is a fixed power optic.
Adjustable Power Lens Optic Facts
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. These types of scopes will note the magnification amount in a format such as 2-10×32. These numbers indicate the zoom of the scope can be set in between 2x and 10x power. This additionally includes the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is achieved by applying the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
The Power Level and Range Correlation of Optics
Here are some recommended scope powers and the ranges where they can be effectively used. Remember that higher magnification scopes will not be as practical as lower magnification level scopes because increased zoom can be a bad thing. The same relates to extended ranges where the shooter needs to have sufficient power to see precisely where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Finish for Optics
All modern-day rifle scope lenses are covered in special coatings. There are various types and qualities of lens coverings. When looking at high end rifle optics and scope units, Lens coating can be a crucial aspect of a rifle. The glass lenses are among the most vital parts of the optic as they are what your eye sees through while sighting a rifle in on the target. The finish on the lenses shields the lens exterior as well as assists with anti glare from excess sunlight and color presence.
About Rifle Glass Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope producers likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens coverings which use different processes, chemicals, elements, and polarizations to draw out different colors and viewable quality through the lens. Some scope makers use “HD” to refer to “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Finishing Versus Multi-Coating for Rifle Glass
Various optic lenses can also have various coatings used to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or finish applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can offer protection to the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less beneficial things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single layered lens depends on the scope manufacturer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers similarly make it a point to define if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” covered. Being “much better” depends on the maker’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of materials used in developing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Covering for Rifle Optics
Water on a lens does not help with keeping a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Numerous top of the line and military grade optic companies will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finish.
Glass Installing Options
Mounting options for scopes can be found in a couple of options. There are the basic scope rings which are separately mounted to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also typically come in quick release versions which use manual levers which enable rifle operators to rapidly mount and dismount the scopes.
Rifle Glass Mounts with Hex Key Rings
Normal, clamp design mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop design Picatinny scope installation rails on rifles. These types of scope mounts use a couple of different rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which require a long lasting, rock solid mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Optic Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly take off a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. If they all use a comparable style mount, multiple scopes can also be swapped out in the field. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers attach solidly to a flat top design 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 retaining the original sighting settings. These kinds of mounts come in convenient for rifles which are carried a lot, to take off the glass from the rifle for protection, or for optics which are utilized in between a number of rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount from Vortex Optics. It usually costs around $250 USD
About Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle optic can destroy a day of shooting and your pricey optic by causing fogging and creating residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of scopes avoid moisture from entering the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant.
What to Know About Rifle Scope Tube Gas Purging
Another element of preventing the accumulation of wetness within the rifle scope’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is already taken up by the gas, the optic is less impacted by temperature level shifts and pressure distinctions from the outdoor environment which might possibly allow water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
