About Rifle Optics
Rifle scopes enable you to specifically align a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through zoom using a series of lenses within the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adjusted to account for numerous ecological factors like wind and elevation to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing through the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. Many modern-day rifle scopes and optics have about eleven parts which are arranged internally and externally on the scope. These scope parts consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation dials, focus rings, and other elements. See all eleven parts of a rifle scope.
Rifle Optic Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Deciding on the perfect type of rifle glass is based around what type of shooting you plan to do.
First Focal Plane Glass Details
First focal plane optics (FFP) include the reticle in front of the magnification lens. This causes the reticle to increase in size based upon the amount 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 distance. As an example, one tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards without having “zoom” is still the same tick at one hundred yards using 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes are valuable for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where calculations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who have an idea for their aim point “hold over” plus “lead” relationships for their weapon
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and takes up more visual eyesight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Glass Info
Second focal plane optics (SFP) come with 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.
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have additional time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within shorter distances and ranges
- Shooters who like a clearer optic picture with less area used up by the larger size FFP reticle
Zoom for Scopes
The measure of scope magnification you need on your glass depends upon the type of shooting you like to do. Nearly every kind of rifle scope delivers some degree of zoom. The level of magnification a scope provides is identified by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle optic. The magnifying level of the optic is the “power” of the glass. This denotes what the shooter is aiming at through the scope is magnified times the power aspect of what can usually be seen by human eyes.
About Fixed Power Lens Rifle Optics
A single power rifle optic and scope uses a zoom number designator like 4×32. This means the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this kind of scope can not change given that it is a fixed power scope.
Info on Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Optics
Variable power rifle scopes use enhanced power. The power change is handled by using the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
The Power and Range of Rifle Optics
Here are some suggested scope power levels and the ranges where they can be successfully used. Highly magnified scopes will not be as beneficial as lower powered scopes because too much zoom can be a bad thing. The very same idea goes for longer ranges where the shooter needs to have increased power to see where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Rifle Glass Lens Finish
All top of the line rifle optic and scope lenses are covered. Lens finishing is an important aspect of a shooting system when buying high end rifle optics and scope equipment.
ED Versus HD Rifle Glass
Some scope manufacturers also use “HD” or high-definition lens coatings which use various methods, aspects, chemicals, and polarizations to draw out different colors and viewable quality through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” indicating extra-low dispersion glass.
Scope Lens Single Covering Versus Multi-Coating
Different scope lenses can even have various finishings applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some kind of treatment or finish applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic. Due to the fact that the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass, they require performance enhancing coatings. It becomes part of the carefully tuned optic. It must have a finishing put on it so that the lens will be efficiently functional in many types of environments, degrees of sunshine (full light VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is usually a protective and boosting multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can preserve the lens from scratches while decreasing glare and other less useful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the optic. The quality of a single layered lens depends on the scope company and how much money you spent on it. Both the manufacturer and amount are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope makers likewise make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” coated. This suggests the lens has numerous treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens receives several treatments, it can indicate that a manufacturer is taking several steps to combat various natural aspects like an anti-glare covering, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion coating, followed by a hydrophilic coating. This additionally does not always mean the multi-coated lens will perform much better than a single coated lens. Being “much better” hinges on the maker’s lens treatment techniques and the quality of products used in developing the rifle glass.
Anti-water Coating for Rifle Glass
Water on a scope’s lens doesn’t help with keeping a clear sight picture through an optic in any way. Lots of top of the line and high-end scope producers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic coating. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this kind of treatment. It provides protection for the exterior surfaces of the Steiner scope lens so the H2O particles can not bind to it or develop surface tension. The result is that the water beads move off of the scope to maintain a clear, water free sight picture.
Alternatives for Mounting Glass on Firearms
Installing approaches for scopes are available in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These different kinds of mounts also usually come in quick release versions which use toss levers which enable rifle shooters to rapidly install and remove the scope.
Hex Key Optic Ring Mounting Solutions
Standard, 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 different rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for long distance accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is fine for rifles which require a resilient, 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 connect and remove a scope from a rifle. A wide range of scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a similar designed mount. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect nicely to a flat top style Picatinny rail. This allows the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted while preserving the original sighting settings. These kinds of mounts are useful and practical for rifles which are moved around a lot, to take off the glass from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are adopted in between numerous rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount designed by Vortex Optics. It usually costs around $250 USD
Info Around Rifle Scope Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle scope can spoil a day on the range and your pricey optic by triggering fogging and making residue within the scope tube. A lot of optics prevent wetness from getting in the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Normally, these water resistant scopes can be submerged beneath 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can force moisture past the O-rings. This should be ample humidity prevention for common use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you anticipate taking your rifle boating and are worried about the scope still functioning if it falls overboard and you can still find the gun.
Optic Gas Purging
Another component of avoiding the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Since this space is currently occupied by the gas, the optic is less altered by temp alterations and pressure differences from the external environment which could potentially allow water vapor to leak 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.
