What You Need to Know About Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes allow you to specifically aim a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through zoom by making use of a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adjusted to take into account various ecological factors like wind and elevation increases or decreases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to understand precisely where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are seeing through the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the target. A lot of modern rifle optics have about 11 parts which are located inside and on the exterior of the scope. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, adjustment dials or turrets, focus rings, and other parts. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle glass.
Rifle Glass Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Choosing the perfect type of rifle scope is based on what type of shooting you plan on doing.
About First Focal Plane Scopes
Focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the magnification lens. These styles of scopes are useful for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where computations are small
- Experienced shooters who understand their target “hold over” as well as “lead” ratios for their long gun
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and occupies more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
Info on Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane glass (SFP) include the reticle behind the zoom lens. This triggers the reticle to remain at the very same dimensions in relation to the amount of magnification being used. The outcome is that the reticle measurements adapt based upon the magnification applied to shoot over longer distances since the reticle measurements represent various increments which differ with the zoom. In the FFP example with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These styles of scopes work for:
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have more time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most shots take place within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who like a clearer optic sight picture without space used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Details on Scope Zoom
The quantity of magnification a scope offers is determined by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Fixed Single Power Lens Scope Info
A single power rifle optic uses a magnification number designator like 4×32. This suggests the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this kind of scope can not adjust because it is a set power scope.
Info on Variable Power Lens Optics
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. These types of scopes will note the magnification level in a configuration such as 2-10×32. These numbers imply the zoom of the scope can be adjusted between 2x and 10x power. This also involves the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is achieved by applying the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
Rifle Scope Power Level and Range Correlation
Here are some recommended scope powers and the ranges where they may be efficiently used. High power scopes will not be as useful as lower magnification glass considering too much zoom can be a negative aspect depending on your shooting distance. The same idea relates to longer ranges where the shooter needs to have sufficient power to see where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Details on Lens Coverings
All modern rifle optic and scope lenses are coated. Lens coating can be an essential aspect of a rifle when buying high end rifle optics and scope equipment.
ED Versus HD Scopes
Some glass manufacturers even use “HD” or high-definition lense finishings which make the most of different processes, elements, rare earth compounds, and polarizations to extract separate color ranges and viewable target definition through lenses. This high-def finish is commonly used with greater density lens glass which decreases light’s chance to refract through the lens glass. Some scope vendors use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how certain colors are represented on the chroma spectrum and the chromatic aberration which is also called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration is often visible over items with hard shapes as light hits the item from various angles.
Single Optic Lens Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can also have various finishes applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or covering applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
Single layered lenses have a treatment applied to them which is generally a protective and enhancing multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can shield the lens from scratches while decreasing glare and other less helpful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single coated lens depends upon the scope designer and the amount you spent for it. Both the manufacturer and amount are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope manufacturers likewise make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” coated. This indicates the lens has had numerous treatments applied to the surfaces of the glass. If a lens gets several treatments, it can indicate that a producer is taking several actions to fight different natural elements like an anti-glare covering, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion covering, followed by a hydrophilic covering. This also doesn’t always suggest the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single layered lens. Being “better” depends on the manufacturer’s lens treatment techniques and the quality of products used in developing the rifle glass.
Anti-water Lens Finishing
Water on a lens does not support keeping a clear sight picture through an optic in any way. Many top of the line or high-end scope makers 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 deals with the exterior of the Steiner optic lens so the water particles can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The result is that the water beads roll off of the scope to keep a clear, water free sight picture.
Choices for Mounting Glass on Firearms
Mounting approaches for scopes can be found in a few choices. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also generally are made in quick release versions which use manual levers which allow rifle operators to quickly install and remove the scope.
Hex Key Scope Ring Mounting Solutions
Standard, clamp style mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop design Picatinny scope mount rails on rifles. These types of scope mounts use two different rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which is designed for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope install is excellent for rifles which require a long lasting, rock solid mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Quick-Release Cantilever Scope Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly attach and remove a scope from a rifle. Several scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a similar designed mount. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect firmly to a flat top type Picatinny rail. This enables the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, removed from the rifle, and remounted while retaining the original sighting settings. These types of mounts are useful and handy for rifles which are shipped a lot, to remove the scope from the rifle for protection, or for aiming systems which are employed between a number of rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount designed by Vortex Optics. It typically costs around $250 USD
Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle scope can destroy a day of shooting and your costly optic by triggering fogging and producing residue inside of the scope tube. A lot of scopes prevent moisture from getting in the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are waterproof.
Gas Purged Rifle Glass Tubes
Another part of avoiding the accumulation of wetness within the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Considering that this space is currently taken up by the gas, the optic is less influenced by temp shifts and pressure variations from the outside environment which could potentially 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.
