Information Glass
Rifle scopes allow you to exactly align a rifle at different targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through magnification by employing a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adapted to account for various ecological factors like wind speed and elevation decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help the shooter understand precisely where the bullet will land based upon the sight picture you are seeing using the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. A lot of modern-day rifle scopes have around eleven parts which are found internally and outside of the scope body. These scope parts consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials, objective focus rings, and other components. See all eleven parts of a scope.
Rifle Optic Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Considering the perfect type of rifle optic depends on what type of shooting you plan to do.
Info on First Focal Plane Glass
Focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These kinds of scopes are helpful for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting situations where computations are small
- Experienced shooters who have an idea for their target “hold over” plus “lead” equations for their firearms
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and uses up more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Glass
Second focal plane optics (SFP) feature the reticle to the rear of the magnification lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick reticle measurement.
- Long distance styles of shooting where shooters have additional time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most shots happen within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who select a clearer optic picture without space used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Details on Scope Zoom
The quantity of zoom a scope provides is figured out by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Fixed Power Lens Optic Facts
A single power rifle scope or optic will have a zoom number designator like 4×32. This implies the magnification power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of scope can not change given that it is a set power scope.
Variable Power Lens Optics
Variable power rifle scopes can be changed between magnification increments. It will list the magnification level in a configuration such as 2-10×32. These numbers indicate the magnification of the scope can be adjusted between 2x and 10x power. This additionally involves the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is achieved by operating the power ring component of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell piece.
The Power and Range of Rifle Optics
Here are some suggested scope power settings and the distances where they can be successfully used. Highly magnified rifle scope glass will not be as useful as lower magnification level optics because too much zoom can be a negative aspect depending on your shooting distance. The same concept relates to extended ranges where the shooter needs sufficient power to see precisely where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Info on Lens Coverings
All modern-day rifle optic lenses are coated. There are various types and qualities of coatings. When considering luxury rifle targeting units, Lens finish can be a critical component of defining the rifle’s capability. The lenses are among the most vital parts of the glass considering that they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the target. The finish on the lenses protects the lens surface area as well as helps with anti glare capabilities from refracted sunshine and color presence.
HD Versus ED Lenses
Some scope makers also use “HD” or high-definition lens finishes which use various techniques, elements, polarizations, and chemicals to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” to signify the lens has extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Coating Versus Multi-Coating
Different scope lenses can also have different coatings applied to them. All lenses generally have at least some kind of treatment or covering applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic assembly. Due to the fact that the lens isn’t simply a raw piece of glass, they require performance enhancing coatings. It is part of the carefully tuned optic. It requires a coating to be applied to it so that the lens will be optimally usable in numerous types of environments, degrees of light (full VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can offer protection to 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 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 coated or “multi” coated. This indicates the lens has numerous treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens receives numerous treatments, it can show that a manufacturer is taking several steps to combat various environmental elements like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion covering, followed by a hydrophilic finish. This additionally doesn’t necessarily indicate the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single layered lens. Being “much better” is dependent on the producer’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of products used in creating the rifle optic.
Scope Lens Hydrophobic Coating
Water on a lens does not assist with preserving a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Numerous top of the line and high-end scope makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic coating.
Optic Installation Choices
Installing options for scopes can be found in a few choices. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also usually are made in quick release versions which use throw levers which enable rifle shooters to rapidly mount and remove the scopes.
Hex Key Scope Rings
Normal, clamp design 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 separate rings to support the optic, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which is created for long distance precision shooting. This type of scope install is perfect for rifles which need a resilient, rock solid mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Quick-Release Cantilever Glass Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly remove a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. If they all use a similar design mount, several scopes can often be switched out on the range. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted 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 while keeping the original sighting settings. These kinds of mounts come in convenient for shooting platforms which are carried 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 type is the 30mm mount from Vortex Optics. It generally costs around $250 USD
Sealing and Gas Purging for Glass Tubes
Wetness inside your rifle glass can ruin a day of shooting and your highly-priced optic by resulting in fogging and making residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of scopes protect against wetness from going into the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Usually, these water resistant optics can be immersed underneath 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can force moisture past the O-rings. This should be ample moisture content avoidance for basic use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you anticipate taking your rifle on your motorboat and are concerned about the optic still functioning if it goes over the side and you can still find the gun.
Rifle Scope Gas Purging
Another element of preventing the accumulation of wetness within the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is already taken up by the gas, the glass is less altered by climate alterations and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which may potentially allow water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to seek out.
