Information About Glass
Rifle scopes permit you to specifically align a rifle at different targets by lining up your eye with the target over a range. They do this through magnifying the target by employing a series of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adapted for the consideration of various ecological aspects like wind speed and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will land based upon the sight picture you are viewing using the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the target. Most modern rifle optics have about eleven parts which are found within and externally on the scope. These scope parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation turrets or dials, focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of optics.
About Rifle Glass Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” style of scopes. The form of focal plane a scope has determines where the reticle or crosshair is located in relation to the optic’s zoom. It simply means the reticle is situated behind or ahead of the magnifying lens of the scope. Choosing the most effective style of rifle scope is dependent on what sort of shooting or hunting you anticipate doing.
First Focal Plane Optic Facts
Focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These types of scopes are useful for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting situations where calculations are small
- Experienced shooters who recognize their aim point “hold over” plus “lead” ratios for their weapon
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and uses up more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane optics (SFP) feature the reticle behind the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to stay at the very same overall size relative to the volume of magnification being used. The effect is that the reticle dimensions shift based upon the magnification applied to shoot over longer distances due to the fact that the reticle markings present distinct increments which differ with the zoom. In the FFP illustration with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These sorts of scopes are convenient for:
- Long distance types of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most shots take place within much shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who choose a clearer optic sight picture with less room taken up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Zoom for Rifle Optics
The quantity of zoom a scope supplies is determined by the diameter, thickness, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Fixed Power Lens Scopes
A single power rifle scope and optic will have a magnification number designator like 4×32. This suggests the zoom power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of optic can not change because it is set from the factory.
Info About Adjustable Power Lens Optics
Variable power rifle scopes can be adjusted between magnification power levels. It will list the zoom degree in a configuration such as 2-10×32. These numbers imply the zoom of the scope can be adjusted in between 2x and 10x power. This always includes the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power adjustment is accomplished by applying the power ring component of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell piece.
Power Levels and Range Correlations
Here are some advised scope power settings and the ranges where they could be effectively used. Remember that higher magnification optics and scopes will not be as practical as lower powered optics since increased zoom can be a bad thing. The exact same concept applies to extended ranges where the shooter needs sufficient power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle.
Glass Lens Finishing
All cutting-edge rifle scope lenses are layered. Lens coating is a vital element of a shooting system when purchasing high end rifle optics and scope systems.
HD Versus ED Rifle Glass Lens Coatings
Some scope producers likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens finishes which use various procedures, components, polarizations, and chemicals to draw out various colors and viewable quality through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass.
Glass Lens Single Coating Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can also have various coverings applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some kind of treatment or finish applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic. Because the lens isn’t simply a raw piece of glass, they require performance enhancing coatings. It becomes part of the finely tuned optic. It must have a finish placed on it so that the lens will be efficiently functional in many types of environments, degrees of light (full light VS shaded), and other shooting conditions.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is typically a protective and enhancing multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can preserve the lens from scratches while decreasing 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 upon the scope developer and how much you paid for it. The scope’s maker and cost are indications of the lens quality.
Some scope producers similarly make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” covered. Being “better” depends on the manufacturer’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of products used in constructing the rifle scope.
Scope Lens Anti-water Coating
Water on a scope lens doesn’t improve keeping a clear sight picture through a scope whatsoever. Lots of top of the line or high-end optic manufacturers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic coating. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a fine example of this kind of treatment. It deals with the surface of the Steiner glass lens so the water molecules can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads slide off of the scope to preserve a clear, water free sight picture.
Scope Mounting Alternatives
Mounting approaches for scopes come in a couple of options. There are the basic scope rings which are separately installed to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These different types of mounts also generally can be found in quick release versions which use throw levers which permit rifle shooters to rapidly mount and dismount the scope.
Hex Key Optic Ring Mounting Solutions
Normal, clamp design mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop design Picatinny scope installation rails on rifles. These types of scope mounts use a couple of different rings to support the optic, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for long range precision shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which require a resilient, rock solid mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Scope Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly take off a scope and connect it to a different rifle. Several scopes can even be swapped out if they all use a similar style mount. These types of mounts are handy for rifles which are carried a lot, to swap out the optic from the rifle for protecting the scope, or for scopes which are used in between multiple rifles.
Info Around Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle glass can ruin a day of shooting and your pricey optic by resulting in fogging and developing residue inside of the scope’s tube. Most scopes prevent humidity from getting in the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Usually, these water-resistant optics can be immersed underneath 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can force moisture past the O-rings. This should be more than enough moisture prevention for basic use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you intend on taking your rifle aboard a watercraft and are worried about the optic still working if it is submerged in water and you can still recover the gun.
Gas Purged Scope Tubes
Another part of preventing the buildup of moisture within the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Given that this area is currently taken up by the gas, the scope is less influenced by climate alterations and pressure distinctions from the external environment which might possibly allow water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
