Rifle Glass Facts
Rifle scopes allow you to precisely align a rifle at different targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through magnification by utilizing a set of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adapted to take into account separate environmental aspects like wind and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand precisely where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing through the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. Most modern rifle scopes have about 11 parts which are found internally and on the exterior of the optic. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage turrets, objective focus rings, and other elements. Learn about the eleven parts of optics.
The Styles of Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Picking the perfect type of rifle glass is based on what type of shooting you plan on doing.
First Focal Plane Optics
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the magnification lens. These types of scopes are helpful for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting situations where computations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who know their aim point “hold over” and “lead” correlations for their long gun
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and uses up more visual eyesight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Scope Info
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle behind the magnification lens. 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.
- Far away styles of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most shots take place within much shorter ranges and distances
- Shooters who choose a clearer optic picture without area used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Scope Zoom
The measure of scope magnification you need on your optic depends upon the type of shooting you want to do. Just about every kind of rifle scope offers some amount of magnification. The amount of magnification a scope offers is determined by the dimension, thickness, and curvatures of the lens glass inside of the rifle scope. The magnifying level of the scope is the “power” of the opic. This implies what the shooter is looking at through the scope is amplified times the power factor of what can generally be seen by human eyes.
Fixed Power Lens Rifle Scopes
A single power rifle optic uses a zoom number designator like 4×32. This suggests the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this kind of scope can not adjust considering that it is fixed.
Variable Power Lens Rifle Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. The power change is achieved by making use of the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Power Levels and Range
Here are some advised scope power levels and the ranges where they can be successfully used. High power glass will not be as beneficial as lower powered glass considering that too much zoom can be a bad thing. The same concept relates to extended distances where the shooter needs enough power to see where to properly aim the rifle.
Details on Scope Lens Coatings
All modern-day rifle scope lenses are covered in special coatings. There are various types and qualities of lens coatings. When researching high end rifle scope systems, Lens covering can be a vital aspect of defining the capability of the rifle. The glass lenses are one of the most essential parts of the optic given that they are what your eye sees through while sighting a rifle in on the target. The coating on the lenses safeguards the lens exterior and even helps with anti glare from refracted daylight and color discernibility.
About Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope manufacturers also use “HD” or high-definition lens finishings which use various techniques, aspects, chemicals, and polarizations to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope makers use “HD” to refer to “ED” to signify the lens has extra-low dispersion glass.
Optic Lens Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can likewise have different coatings used to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or coating used to them before being used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can offer protection to the lens from scratches while lowering glare and other less advantageous things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single covered lens depends on the scope maker and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers also 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 numerous treatments, it can show that a manufacturer is taking numerous steps to combat various environmental factors like an anti-glare coating, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion covering, followed by a hydrophilic finish. This additionally does not necessarily mean the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single layered lens. Being “much better” depends upon the maker’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of materials used in building the rifle glass.
Anti-water Finish for Rifle Scopes
Water on an optical lens does not assist with preserving a clear sight picture through an optic at all. Many top of the line and premium scope producers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic covering. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a fine example of this type of treatment. It deals with the exterior of the Steiner optic lens so the water particles can not bind to it or create surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads sheet off of the scope to keep a clear, water free sight picture.
Scope Installation Alternatives
Mounting approaches for scopes come in a few options. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the optic and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also normally come in quick release versions which use throw levers which allow rifle operators to rapidly install and remove the glass.
Hex Key Glass Rings
Normal, clamp style mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop style Picatinny scope mount 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 developed for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which require a long lasting, sound mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Optic Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly connect and remove a scope from a rifle. If they all use a comparable style mount, multiple scopes can also be swapped out. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect firmly to a flat top design Picatinny rail. This allows the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, removed from the rifle, and remounted while keeping accuracy. These kinds of mounts come in beneficial for shooting platforms which are moved a lot, to remove the optic from the rifle for protection, or for aiming systems which are chosen for use in between multiple rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount designed by the Vortex Optics manufacturer. It normally costs around $250 USD
Info Around Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle scope can ruin a day of shooting and your expensive optic by causing fogging and generating residue inside of the scope tube. A lot of optics protect against wetness from entering the scope tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Usually, 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 moisture prevention for basic use rifles, unless you plan on taking your rifle on a boat and are worried about the scope still functioning if it goes over the side and you can still rescue the rifle.
Gas Purged Glass Tubes
Another component of preventing the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle scope’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this area is already taken up by the gas, the scope is less influenced by temperature alterations and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which may potentially permit water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to seek out.
