What You Need to Know About Rifle Optics
Rifle scopes allow you to exactly aim a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target over a distance. They accomplish this through zoom using a set of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adapted for the consideration of various natural considerations like wind speed and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help shooters understand exactly where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are viewing with the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. Many modern-day rifle scopes and optics have around eleven parts which are found internally and externally on the scope. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. See all eleven parts of a scope.
Rifle Optic Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Going for the best type of rifle optic depends on what type of shooting you plan to do.
First Focal Plane Optic Facts
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to increase in size based upon the extent of magnification being used. The outcome is that the reticle measurements are the same at the enhanced range as they are at the non amplified range. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards without “zoom” is still the same tick at 100 yards by using 5x “zoom”. These types of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where computations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who know their aim point “hold over” as well as “lead” relationships for their long gun
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and uses up more visual sight area than a SFP reticle
Info on Second Focal Plane Glass
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle behind the zoom lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement.
- Long distance styles of shooting where shooters have increased time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within much shorter distances and ranges
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic sight picture without area taken up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Magnification for Rifle Glass
The measure of scope magnification you need depends on the sort of shooting you choose to do. Just about every style of rifle optic provides some level of zoom. The amount of magnification a scope delivers is identified by the diameter, thickness, and curves of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification level of the scope is the “power” of the glass. This indicates what the shooter is checking out through the scope is amplified times the power element of what can usually be seen by human eyes.
Info on Fixed Single Power Lens Rifle Glass
A single power rifle scope will have a zoom number designator like 4×32. This indicates 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 considering that it is set from the factory.
Info About Adjustable Power Lens Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. It will list the zoom amount in a format such as 2-10×32. These numbers indicate the magnification of the scope can be adjusted between 2x and 10x power. This additionally includes the power levels in-between 2 and 10. The power shift is achieved utilizing the power ring component of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell piece.
Power Levels and Range
Here are some suggested scope power levels and the ranges where they can be efficiently used. Highly magnified optics will not be as beneficial as lower magnification optics since too much zoom can be a bad thing. The exact same idea relates to longer ranges where the shooter needs to have sufficient power to see where to best aim the rifle.
Rifle Glass Lens Coating
All modern-day rifle scope lenses are covered in special coatings. There are various types and qualities of finishes. When looking at high end rifle targeting devices, Lens finishing can be a crucial aspect of defining the capability of the rifle. The lenses are one of the most critical pieces of the glass since they are what your eye sees through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The coating on the lenses offers protection to the lens surface and even improves anti glare capabilities from refracted sunrays and color profiles.
Details on Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope brands likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens coatings which use different processes, polarizations, chemicals, and components to draw out different 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.
What to Know About Single Coating Versus Multi-Coating
Different scope lenses can even have different coverings applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some type of treatment or finishing applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic assembly. Because 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 it will be efficiently usable in numerous types of environments, degrees of sunlight (full VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can offer protection to the lens from scratches while reducing 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 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 covered or “multi” coated. Being “better” depends on the manufacturer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in developing the rifle scope.
About Hydrophobic Finishing
Water on a scope’s lens doesn’t support preserving a clear sight picture through an optic at all. Numerous top of the line and premium scope makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic coating. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a fine example of this type of treatment. It treats the exterior surfaces of the Steiner glass lens so the H2O molecules can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads roll off of the scope to preserve a clear, water free sight picture.
Alternatives for Installing Rifle Scopes on Long Guns
Mounting options for scopes can be found in a few choices. There are the standard scope rings which are separately installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also usually come in quick release versions which use throw levers which permit rifle shooters to rapidly mount and dismount the scope.
Hex Key Scope Ring Mounting Solutions
Normal, clamp style mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop style Picatinny scope installation 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 are designed for long distance accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is perfect for rifles which need a long lasting, rock solid mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Glass Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly remove a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. A wide range of scopes can also be switched out if they all use a complementary designed mount. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers fasten solidly to a flat top design Picatinny rail. This permits the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while preserving the original sighting settings. These types of mounts are useful and handy for rifles which are transported a lot, to remove the scope glass from the rifle for protection, or for optics which are used in between several rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount designed by the Vortex Optics manufacturer. It typically costs around $250 USD
Sealing and Gas Purging for Rifle Optic Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle optic can wreck a day of shooting and your pricey optic by triggering fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. Most scopes prevent moisture from getting in the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Usually, these water resistant scopes can be submerged within 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be ample humidity prevention for conventional use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you anticipate taking your rifle aboard a watercraft and are concerned about the optic still working if it goes over the side and you can still salvage the gun.
Info Around Rifle Glass Tube Gas Purging
Another part of preventing the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Considering that this space is already taken up by the gas, the optic is less altered by climate alterations and pressure variations from the external environment which could 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 good rifle scope to seek out.
