About Optics
Rifle scopes enable you to specifically align a rifle at various targets by aligning 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 dialed in to account for separate ecological aspects like wind speed and elevation decreases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are seeing with the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. Many modern-day rifle scopes and optics have about eleven parts which are found inside and on the exterior of the optic. These optic pieces consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. See all eleven parts of a rifle optical system.
Rifle Scope Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Deciding upon the finest type of rifle glass depends on what type of shooting you plan on doing.
Info About First Focal Plane Glass
First focal plane glass (FFP) come with the reticle in front of the zoom lens. This causes the reticle to increase in size based upon the amount of magnification being used. The result is that the reticle measurements are the same at the amplified range as they are at the non magnified range. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at 100 yards with no “zoom” is still the exact same tick at one hundred yards by using 5x “zoom”. These types of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where calculations are small
- Experienced shooters who recognize their target “hold over” and also “lead” relationships for their firearm
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is enlarged and requires more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane optics (SFP) come with the reticle to the rear of the magnification lens. This triggers the reticle to remain at the exact same scale in relation to the level of magnification being used. The outcome is that the reticle dimensions alter based on the magnification chosen to shoot over longer ranges because the markings present distinct increments which fluctuate with the zoom level. In the FFP illustration with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick reticle measurement. These particular varieties of optics are useful for:
- Far away kinds of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who prefer a clearer optic sight picture without room taken up by the larger size FFP reticle
About Rifle Optic Magnification
The level of scope magnification you need depends upon the kind of shooting you want to do. Nearly every kind of rifle optic delivers some degree of zoom. The quantity of magnification a scope offers is established by the size, thickness, and curves of the lenses within the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope. This denotes what the shooter is aiming at through the scope is magnified times the power element of what can generally be seen by human eyes.
Single Power Lens Rifle Optics
A single power rifle optic comes with a magnification number designator like 4×32. This suggests 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 Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. It will note the zoom level in a format like 2-10×32. These numbers suggest the magnification of the scope could be set in between 2x and 10x power. This always 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.
Optic Power and Range Correlation
Here are some advised scope powers and the distances where they can be efficiently used. Always remember that higher magnification optics will not be as effective as lower magnification level glass since excessive magnification can be a detractor. The same relates to extended ranges where the shooter needs adequate power to see exactly where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Info on Lens Covering
All modern-day rifle scope and optic lenses are layered. Lens finishing can be a vital element of a shooting platform when considering high end rifle optics and scope equipment.
HD Versus ED Rifle Optic Lens Coatings
Some rifle glass suppliers will also use “HD” or high-definition lens coatings which employ different processes, polarizations, rare earth compounds, and aspects to draw out various colors and viewable target definition through the lens. This high-definition covering is normally used with more costly high density lens glass which decreases light’s ability to refract by means of the lens glass. Some scope producers use “HD” to describe “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how certain colors are represented on the chroma spectrum and the chromatic aberration or deviance which is also called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration is often obvious over objects with defined shapes as light hits the object from specific angles.
About Single Covering Versus Multi-Coating
Different scope lenses can even have different finishes applied to them. All lenses typically have at least some kind of treatment or covering applied to them prior to being 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 is part of the finely tuned optic. It needs to have a finish placed on it so that it will be optimally usable in many kinds of environments, degrees of light (full VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
Single coated lenses have a treatment applied to them which is normally 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 scope. The quality of a single coated lens depends on the scope maker and just how much you spent on it. Both are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope manufacturers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” coated. Being “better” depends on the maker’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of materials used in constructing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Covering for Rifle Glass
Water on a lens doesn’t assist with preserving a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Lots of top of the line and military grade scope makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic anti-water covering.
Choices for Installing Scopes on Long Guns
Mounting options for scopes can be found in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These different kinds of mounts also normally come in quick release versions which use throw levers which permit rifle shooters to rapidly install and dismount the scope.
Hex Key Glass Ring Mounts
Standard, clamp design 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 often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for long distance accuracy shooting. This type of scope install is wonderful for rifles which need a long lasting, rock solid mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abused.
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Scope Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly connect and remove a scope from a rifle. If they all use a comparable style mount, a number of scopes can also be switched out on the range. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers fasten nicely to a flat top type Picatinny rail. This allows the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, removed from the rifle, and remounted while preserving precision. These kinds of mounts come in practical for shooting platforms which are transported a lot, to take off the glass from the rifle for protection, or for optics which are used in between multiple rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount from Vortex Optics. It normally costs around $250 USD
Sealing and Gas Purging for Glass Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle optic can destroy a day of shooting and your expensive optic by causing fogging and creating 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 waterproof.
Glass Gas Purging
Another element of avoiding the accumulation of wetness inside of the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Given that this area is already occupied by the gas, the optic is less impacted by temperature level alterations and pressure variations from the outdoor environment which may possibly permit water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
