What You Need to Know About Scopes
Rifle scopes permit you to specifically aim a rifle at different targets by aligning your eye with the target over a range. They do this through magnifying the target by employing a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s alignment can be dialed in to take into account numerous natural elements like wind and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help the shooter understand exactly where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are seeing using the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. The majority of modern-day rifle scopes and optics have about eleven parts which are located internally and outside of the scope body. These parts consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, modification turrets or dials, focus rings, and other components. See all eleven parts of a rifle scope.
The Types of Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Considering the perfect type of rifle scope depends on what type of shooting you plan on doing.
First Focal Plane Scopes
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These kinds of scopes are useful for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting circumstances where calculations are very little
- Experienced shooters who recognize their target “hold over” plus “lead” correlations for their long gun
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and takes up more visual eyesight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Scope Info
Second focal plane optics (SFP) feature the reticle behind the zoom lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick.
- Far away styles of shooting where shooters have additional time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most shots happen within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who choose a clearer optic picture without area taken up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Optic Zoom
The quantity of magnification a scope supplies is determined by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Info About Fixed Single Power Lens Rifle Scopes
A single power rifle optic and scope comes with a zoom number designator like 4×32. This means the zoom power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this kind of optic can not fluctuate because it is fixed.
Variable Power Lens Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. The power modification is achieved by making use of 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 advised scope power levels and the ranges where they may be efficiently used. Highly magnified glass will not be as useful as lower powered scopes since too much zoom can be a negative aspect depending on your shooting distance. The same concept goes for extended ranges where the shooter needs increased power to see exactly where to properly aim the rifle at the target.
Rifle Glass Lens Finishing
All state-of-the-art rifle optic lenses are coated. Lens finish is an essential aspect of a rifle when buying high end rifle optics and scope systems.
Info on Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some rifle glass companies even use “HD” or high-def glass coverings that make the most of various procedures, aspects, polarizations, and chemical applications to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable target definition through lenses. This high-definition coating is often used with increased density glass which decreases light’s chance to refract through the lens glass. Some scope vendors use “HD” to refer to “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass. ED deals with how colors are represented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic difference or aberration which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration can be obvious over things with well defined outlines as light hits the item from certain angles.
Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can also have different coatings applied to them. All lenses generally have at least some type of treatment or finishing applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
Single coated lenses have a treatment applied to them which is typically a protective and improving multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can preserve the lens from scratches while minimizing glare and other less useful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the optic. The quality of a single coated lens depends upon the scope producer and just how much you spent for it. Both the manufacturer and amount are indications of the lens quality.
Some scope producers likewise make it a point to define if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” coated. This implies the lens has had several treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens gets several treatments, it can establish that a producer is taking numerous actions to combat various natural aspects like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion coating, followed by a hydrophilic covering. This additionally does not necessarily suggest the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single layered lens. Being “better” is dependent on the producer’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of components used in creating the rifle glass.
What to Know About Hydrophobic Finishing
Water on a scope lens doesn’t improve retaining a clear sight picture through a scope in any way. Numerous top of the line or high-end scope manufacturers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finishing. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this kind of treatment. It deals with the surface of the Steiner scope lens so the water particles can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The result is that the water beads move off of the scope to maintain a clear, water free sight picture.
Choices for Installing Scopes on Long Guns
Mounting approaches for scopes can be found in a couple of options. There are the basic scope rings which are individually mounted to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These different types of mounts also generally can be found in quick release variations which use manual levers which allow rifle shooters to quickly install and dismount the scopes.
Scope Mounting Solutions with Hex Key Rings
Basic, clamp-on type mounting scope rings use hex head screws to install to the flattop style Picatinny scope mounting rails on rifles. These varieties of scope mounts use double independent rings to support the optic, and are normally made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are made for far away precision shooting. This type of scope mount is good for rifle systems which need a resilient, rock solid mount which will not shift no matter just how much the scope is moved about or abuse the rifle takes. These are the style of mounts you should get for a specialized optics setup on a far away hunting or competitors long gun that will pretty much never need to be changed or recalibrated. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can additionally be used on the scope mount screws to prevent the hex screw threads from wiggling out after they are installed tightly in position. An example of these rings are the 30mm style from the Vortex Optics brand. The set typically costs around $200 USD
Quick-Release Cantilever Scope 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. Several scopes can also be switched out if they all use a complementary designed mount. The quick detach design is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers fasten securely to a flat top design Picatinny rail. This lets the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted back on the rifle while retaining accuracy. These types of mounts are useful and convenient for rifles which are transported a lot, to remove the glass from the rifle for protection, or for sight systems which are employed between numerous rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics brand. It typically costs around $250 USD
Details on Scope Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle scope can destroy a day of shooting and your pricey optic by triggering fogging and creating 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.
Details on Rifle Scope Tube Gas Purging
Another component of preventing the buildup of wetness inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is currently occupied by the gas, the glass is less altered by temperature changes and pressure variations from the outdoor environment which could potentially enable water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to seek out.
