Glass Information
Rifle scopes allow you to exactly aim a rifle at different targets by lining up your eye with the target at range. They do this through magnifying the target using a set of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for consideration of varied ecological aspects like wind 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 land based upon the sight picture you are viewing through the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. Many modern rifle scopes have about 11 parts which are found within and on the exterior of the optic. These scope parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, adjustment dials, objective focus rings, and other elements. See all eleven parts of optics.
Rifle Scope Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. The kind of focal plane a scope has identifies where the reticle or crosshair lies in connection with the scopes magnifying adjustments. It simply means the reticle is behind or ahead of the magnification lens of the optic. Considering the best form of rifle optic depends on what type of hunting or shooting you intend on undertaking.
First Focal Plane Scopes
Focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These kinds of scopes are beneficial for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting situations where calculations are minimal
- Experienced shooters who recognize their target “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
Info on Second Focal Plane Glass
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) feature the reticle behind the magnifying lens. This causes the reticle to stay at the exact same scale in relation to the amount of zoom being used. The effect is that the reticle measurements adjust based on the zoom chosen to shoot over longer ranges considering that the reticle markings present various increments which change with the zoom level. In the FFP example with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick. These kinds of glass work for:
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most shots happen within shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who select a clearer optic sight picture with less room used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Magnification for Glass
The extent of scope magnification you need on your scope depends on the style of shooting you plan to do. Virtually every kind of rifle optic delivers some degree of zoom. The volume of magnification a scope supplies is established by the size, thickness, and curves of the lens glass within the rifle optic. The magnifying level of the optic is the “power” of the opic. This means what the shooter is looking at through the scope is amplified times the power factor of what can usually be seen by human eyes.
Fixed Power Lens Rifle Scopes
A single power rifle scope or optic will have a magnification number designator like 4×32. This means the magnification power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this kind of scope can not adjust given that it is set from the factory.
Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Optics
Variable power rifle scopes can be changed between magnification levels. These types of scopes will note the magnification degree in a configuration such as 2-10×32. These numbers suggest the zoom of the scope can be set between 2x and 10x power. This always involves the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power adjustment is accomplished using the power ring component of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
The Power and Range of Rifle Scopes
Here are some advised scope powers and the ranges where they could be efficiently used. Remember that higher magnification optics will not be as effective as lower magnification level optics and scopes because too much zoom can be a bad thing. The same idea applies to extended distances where the shooter needs adequate power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Finish for Optics
All contemporary rifle scope and optic lenses are layered. There are different types and qualities of glass lens coatings. When shopping for high end rifle scope units, Lens finishing can be an essential component of defining the rifle’s capability. The glass lenses are one of the most vital pieces of the glass considering they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The finish on the lenses offers protection to the lens surface and assists with anti glare from excess direct sunlight and color exposure.
Details on Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope companies also use “HD” or high-definition glass finishings that employ various processes, polarizations, elements, and chemicals to extract numerous color ranges and viewable target definition through lenses. This high-def finishing is often used with more costly high density lens glass which drops light’s potential to refract by means of the lens glass. Some scope producers use “HD” to refer to “ED” suggesting extra-low dispersion glass. ED deals with how certain colors are presented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic aberration which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration can be obvious over items with defined outlines as light hits the object from various angles.
Details on Single Covering Versus Multi-Coating
Different optic lenses can likewise have various coverings applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or coating used to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
Single covered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is usually a protective and boosting multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can protect the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less advantageous things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single layered lens depends on the scope designer and the amount you spent for it. The scope’s maker and cost are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope makers also make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” covered. Being “much better” depends on the manufacturer’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of products used in developing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Finishing for Scopes
Water on a lens doesn’t help with preserving a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Numerous top of the line and high-end optic makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finish.
Alternatives for Installing Optics on Long Guns
Mounting options for scopes are available in a few choices. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also typically can be found in quick release variations which use toss levers which allow rifle shooters to rapidly mount and dismount the optics.
Rifle Scope Mounts with Hex Key Rings
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 two different rings to support the optic, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which is designed for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope install is wonderful for rifles which need a durable, rock solid mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Rifle Glass Mounting Solutions with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly detach a scope and attach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a compatible design mount. These types of mounts are convenient for long guns which are carried a lot, to swap out the optic from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are used in between several rifles.
What to Know About Rifle Scope Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle optic can destroy a day on the range and your pricey optic by resulting in fogging and producing residue within the scope’s tube. Most optics prevent moisture from getting in the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Normally, these optics can be immersed under 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can force moisture past the O-rings. This should be sufficient 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 salvage the gun.
Details on Optic Tube Gas Purging
Another element of preventing the buildup of wetness within the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Considering that this area is already occupied by the gas, the scope is less affected by condition shifts and pressure differences from the outside environment which may potentially enable water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to seek out.
