Info Glass
Rifle scopes permit you to specifically aim a rifle at different targets by lining up your eye with the target over a distance. They do this through zoom by using a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s alignment can be dialed in for the consideration of different natural aspects like wind and elevation increases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will hit based on the sight picture you are seeing using the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. Most contemporary rifle optics have around 11 parts which are found internally and externally on the scope. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials or turrets, focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle scopes.
About Scope Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Choosing the perfect type of rifle glass is based on what type of shooting you plan to do.
About First Focal Plane Scopes
Focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the magnification lens. These styles of scopes are helpful for:
- Quick acquisition, far away types of shooting
- Shooting situations where calculations are very little
- Experienced shooters who understand their target “hold over” plus “lead” ratios for their firearm
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and uses up more visual eyesight space than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Scope Facts
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle to the rear of the zoom lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement.
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have more time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within shorter distances and ranges
- Shooters who select a clearer optic picture with less room used up by the larger size FFP reticle
Optic Magnification
The measure of scope zoom you require depends on the kind of shooting you plan to do. Practically every kind of rifle scope offers some amount of zoom. The quantity of magnification a scope provides is identified by the dimension, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the glass. This implies what the shooter is checking out through the scope is magnified times the power element of what can usually be seen by human eyes.
Info on Fixed Power Lens Glass
A single power rifle optic and scope uses a magnification number designator like 4×32. This indicates the magnification power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this type of scope can not adjust because it is set from the factory.
Variable Power Lens Glass Info
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. These types of scopes will note the zoom amount in a format such as 2-10×32. These numbers imply the zoom of the scope can be set between 2x and 10x power. This always utilizes the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power adaptation is accomplished by applying the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell piece.
Rifle Scope Power and Range Correlation
Here are some advised scope power settings and the ranges where they may be effectively used. High power scopes will not be as effective as lower magnification level optics due to the fact that too much zoom can be a bad thing. The exact same concept relates to extended ranges where the shooter needs to have sufficient power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Info on Glass Lens Coverings
All modern-day rifle scope and optic lenses are layered. Lens coating can be a significant element of a rifle when looking into high end rifle optics and scope setups.
HD Versus ED Lenses
Some scope producers also use “HD” or high-definition lens finishings which use different procedures, chemicals, components, and polarizations to draw out separate colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope makers use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Scope Lens Coating Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can even have different finishes applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some kind of treatment or coating applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic assembly. This is since the lens isn’t simply a raw piece of glass. It is part of the finely tuned optic. It must have a coating applied to it so that it will be optimally usable in many types of environments, degrees of light (full light VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can safeguard 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 producer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers likewise make it a point to define if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” covered. This implies the lens has multiple treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens receives numerous treatments, it can indicate that a producer is taking numerous actions to combat various natural elements like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finishing, followed by a hydrophilic finishing. This also does not necessarily indicate the multi-coated lens will perform much better than a single layered lens. Being “much better” hinges on the producer’s lens treatment innovation and the quality of products used in building the rifle glass.
What to Know About Hydrophobic Finish
Water on an optical lens does not assist with preserving a clear sight picture through an optic whatsoever. Lots of top of the line or high-end scope manufacturers will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finish. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this sort of treatment. It deals with the exterior of the Steiner glass lens so the H2O particles can not bind to it or develop surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads slide off of the scope to keep a clear, water free sight picture.
Choices for Installing Rifle Scopes on Firearms
Mounting approaches for scopes are available in a few choices. 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 normally come in quick release versions which use toss levers which allow rifle operators to rapidly install and dismount the scopes.
Hex Key Rifle Scope 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 two separate rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are created for long range precision 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 take off a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be switched out if they all use a complementary designed mount. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect solidly to a flat top design Picatinny rail. This permits the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, removed from the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while preserving accuracy. These kinds of mounts are useful and convenient for rifles which are shipped a lot, to take off the scope glass from the rifle for protection, or for aiming systems which are employed between numerous rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount from Vortex Optics. It normally costs around $250 USD
Info Around Rifle Optic Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle optic can destroy a day on the range and your expensive optic by causing fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. Most scopes protect against humidity from entering the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Usually, these 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 ample moisture content prevention for standard use rifles, unless you intend on taking your rifle aboard a watercraft and are concerned about the scope still working if it goes over the side and you can still recover the firearm.
Gas Purged Rifle Scope Tubes
Another component of preventing the buildup of moisture within the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Given that this space is currently occupied by the gas, the scope is less influenced by temperature changes and pressure distinctions from the external environment which could potentially permit water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
