Glass Details
Rifle scopes permit you to exactly aim a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target over a range. They do this through magnification using a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adjusted to account for numerous natural things like wind and elevation increases or decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help the shooter understand exactly where the bullet will land based upon the sight picture you are seeing through the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. Many contemporary rifle scopes and optics have about 11 parts which are found inside and on the exterior of the scope. These scope parts consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation turrets or dials, 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. Finding the perfect type of rifle scope depends on what type of shooting you plan to do.
About First Focal Plane Optics
Focal plane scopes (FFP) come with the reticle in front of the magnifying lens. This triggers the reticle to increase in size based upon the amount of zoom being used. The benefit is that the reticle measurements are the same at the amplified range as they are at the non amplified distance. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards with no “zoom” is still the very same tick at one hundred yards by using 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where computations are minor
- Experienced shooters who understand their aim point “hold over” and “lead” equations for their long guns
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and requires more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane glass (SFP) feature the reticle to the rear of the zoom lens. This induces the reticle to remain at the very same size relative to the amount of zoom being used. The end result is that the reticle measurements change based upon the magnification employed to shoot over longer distances due to the fact that the markings present different increments which can vary with the magnification. In the FFP illustration with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These styles of glass are handy for:
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have additional time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots take place within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who want a clearer optic sight picture without area used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Zoom for Glass
The amount of zoom a scope provides is figured out by the diameter, thickness, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Single Power Lens Rifle Glass
A single power rifle scope and optic uses a zoom number designator like 4×32. This means the magnification power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this kind of optic can not change considering that it is a fixed power scope.
Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Glass
Variable power rifle scopes can be adjusted between magnification power levels. It will note the magnification level in a configuration like 2-10×32. These numbers mean the zoom of the scope can be changed in between 2x and 10x power. This also involves the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is achieved by working with the power ring component of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell piece.
Rifle Scope Power and Ranges
Here are some suggested scope power levels and the distances where they can be efficiently used. Bear in mind that high power optics will not be as effective as lower powered scopes because excessive magnification can be a bad thing. The same idea applies to extended distances where the shooter needs to have enough power to see where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Coating for Glass
All top of the line rifle optic lenses are layered. Lens finishing is a vital element of a shooting platform when purchasing high end rifle optics and scope setups.
ED Versus HD Glass
Some glass manufacturers even use “HD” or high-definition lens finishes that make the most of various procedures, chemicals, polarizations, and aspects to draw out different color ranges and viewable definition through lenses. This high-definition coating is normally used with increased density lens glass which lowers light’s potential to refract by means of the lens glass. Some scope suppliers use “HD” to refer to “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how colors are represented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic aberration which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration can be noticeable over things with hard shapes as light hits the item from various angles.
Details on Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Different optic lenses can also have different finishes applied to them. All lenses typically have at least some type of treatment or finish applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic. This is due to the fact that the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass. It becomes part of the finely tuned optic. It must have a covering placed on it so that it will be optimally usable in lots of kinds of environments, degrees of light (full light VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is generally a protective and improving multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can protect the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less beneficial things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the optic. The quality of a single layered lens depends upon the scope developer and just how much you spent for it. Both the make and cost are indicators of the lens quality.
Some scope makers likewise make it a point to define if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” covered. This implies the lens has multiple treatments applied to the surfaces of the glass. If a lens receives several treatments, it can indicate that a producer is taking several steps to combat various natural factors like an anti-glare finish, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finish, followed by a hydrophilic covering. This additionally doesn’t always mean the multi-coated lens will perform much better than a single coated lens. Being “much better” is dependent on the maker’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of glass used in building the rifle optic.
Hydrophobic Coating for Optics
Water on an optical lens doesn’t help with retaining a clear sight picture through a scope in any way. Lots of top of the line and high-end scope manufacturers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finishing. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this sort of treatment. It provides protection for the surface of the Steiner optic lens so the H2O molecules can not bind to it or develop surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads roll off of the scope to preserve a clear, water free sight picture.
Rifle Glass Installing Alternatives
Installing approaches for scopes can be found in a couple of choices. There are the standard scope rings which are separately installed to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also typically are made in quick release variations which use toss levers which permit rifle operators to rapidly mount and remove the optics.
Rifle Scope Mounts with Hex Key Rings
Standard, clamp-on type mounting scope rings use hex head screws to position to the flattop design Picatinny scope mounting rails on the tops of rifles. These types of scope mounts use a pair of individual rings to support the scope, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum or similar materials which are created for far away precision shooting. This type of scope mount is ideal for rifle systems which need a long lasting, rock solid mount which will not change regardless of how much the scope is moved about or jarring the rifle takes. These are the style of mounts you should have for a faithful optics system on a reach out and touch someone hunting or sniper competition rifle which will pretty much never need to be changed or recalibrated. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can also be used to stop the hex screws from wiggling out after they are mounted securely in place. An example of these rings are the 30mm type made by the Vortex Optics company. The set normally costs around $200 USD
Quick-Release Cantilever Glass Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly detach a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. If they all use a similar design mount, multiple scopes can also be swapped on the range. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers attach nicely to a flat top style Picatinny rail. This enables the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while maintaining the original sighting settings. These types of mounts come in beneficial for shooting platforms which are moved a lot, to take off the optic from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are adopted between several rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount designed by Vortex Optics. It typically costs around $250 USD
What to Know About Rifle Optic Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle scope can ruin a day of shooting and your costly optic by causing fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. Many scopes prevent moisture from going into the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are waterproof.
Rifle Optic Gas Purging
Another component of preventing the buildup of moisture within the rifle scope’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is currently taken up by the gas, the optic is less altered by temperature level alterations and pressure variations from the outside environment which might possibly allow water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
