What You Need to Know About Rifle Optics
Rifle scopes allow you to specifically align a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through magnifying the target by using a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for the consideration of separate environmental aspects like wind speed and elevation increases or decreases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help the shooter understand precisely where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing via the scope as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. The majority of contemporary rifle optics have about 11 parts which are located internally and on the exterior of the optic. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, modification turrets, focus rings, and other elements. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle optics.
About Rifle Optic Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” style of scopes. The form of focal plane a scope has establishes where the reticle or crosshair is located in relation to the optic’s zoom. It simply suggests the reticle is located behind or before the magnification lens of the optic. Choosing the most reliable form of rifle optic is based upon what kind of hunting or shooting you anticipate doing.
First Focal Plane Glass Details
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the magnification lens. These types of scopes are helpful for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where estimations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who understand their target “hold over” plus “lead” equations for their long gun
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and uses up more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Glass
Second focal plane optics (SFP) feature the reticle to the rear of the magnification lens. This induces the reticle to stay at the very same scale in connection with the volume of zoom being used. The outcome is that the reticle dimensions alter based upon the zoom employed to shoot over lengthier ranges considering that the reticle markings present different increments which fluctuate with the zoom level. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These sorts of optics work for:
- Long distance styles of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots take place within shorter distances and ranges
- Shooters who select a clearer optic sight picture with less room taken up by the larger sized FFP reticle
About Glass Zoom
The quantity of zoom a scope provides is identified by the size, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
About Fixed Power Lens Rifle Optics
A single power rifle optic will have a zoom number designator like 4×32. This indicates the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this kind of scope can not fluctuate given that it is a set power scope.
Variable Power Lens Rifle Glass Info
Variable power rifle scopes can be tweaked between magnified levels. The power modification is achieved using the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
The Power Level and Range Correlation of Rifle Glass
Here are some advised scope powers and the ranges where they may be efficiently used. Always remember that higher magnification optics will not be as practical as lower magnification level glass because too much zoom can be a detractor. The exact same idea relates to extended ranges where the shooter needs to have increased power to see exactly where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Finishing for Rifle Glass
All modern-day rifle optic lenses are coated. There are different types and qualities of lens coverings. Lens coating can be a crucial element of a rifle when considering luxury rifle optics and targeting units. The lenses are one of the most vital components of the optic considering that they are what your eye sees through while sighting a rifle in on the target. The covering on the lenses protects the lens surface as well as helps with anti glare capabilities from refracted daylight and color perception.
HD Versus ED Lenses
Some glass suppliers will also use “HD” or high-definition glass coverings that take advantage of different procedures, polarizations, components, and chemicals to enhance numerous colors and viewable target definition through the lens. This high-def finishing is typically used with increased density glass which lowers light’s ability to refract through the lens glass. Some scope producers use “HD” to describe “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass. ED deals with how colors are represented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic aberration or deviance which is also called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration can be visible around objects with well defined shapes as light hits the object from certain angles.
Single Optic Lens Finishing Versus Multi-Coating
Different optic lenses can likewise have different finishes applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some type of treatment or coating applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is typically a protective and improving multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can preserve the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less beneficial things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the optic. The quality of a single layered lens depends upon the scope developer and the amount you spent paying for it. Both the manufacturer and amount are indicators of the lens quality.
Some scope producers similarly make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” coated. Being “much better” depends on the producer’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of materials used in constructing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Finishing for Optics
Water on an optic’s lens does not support preserving a clear sight picture through a scope in any way. Lots of top of the line and premium optic producers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finishing. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a fine example of this type of treatment. It provides protection for the exterior of the Steiner optic lens so the H2O molecules can not bind to it or develop surface tension. The result is that the water beads roll off of the scope to maintain a clear, water free sight picture.
Rifle Optic Installation Choices
Mounting options for scopes are available in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These different types of mounts also normally are made in quick release variations which use throw levers which enable rifle operators to rapidly install and dismount the scope.
Rifle Glass Mounting Solutions with Hex Key Rings
Standard, clamp style 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 separate rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which is created for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which need a durable, sound mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abused.
Quick-Release Cantilever Optic Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly connect and take off a scope from a rifle. Multiple scopes can also be switched out if they all use a complementary style mount. The quick detach mount style is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers attach securely to a flat top type Picatinny rail. This lets the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted while preserving precision. These kinds of mounts come in beneficial for rifles which are hauled around a lot, to take off the scope from the rifle for protection, or for sight systems which are employed between a number of rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount designed by Vortex Optics. It usually costs around $250 USD
Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle optic can destroy a day of shooting and your pricey optic by causing fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. A lot of scopes prevent moisture from entering the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant.
Details on Scope Tube Gas Purging
Another element of preventing the accumulation of moisture within the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is currently taken up by the gas, the scope is less impacted by temperature shifts and pressure distinctions from the outside environment which may potentially enable water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to seek out.
