What You Need to Know About Glass
Rifle scopes permit you to precisely align a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through magnifying the target by making use of a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adjusted to take into account separate natural elements like wind speed and elevation decreases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand precisely where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are seeing with the scope as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. A lot of contemporary rifle scopes and optics have about 11 parts which are found internally and externally on the scope body. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, modification dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. See all eleven parts of an optic.
About Rifle Optic Varieties
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” kind of scopes. The type of focal plane an optic has establishes where the reticle or crosshair is located in connection with the scopes zoom. It simply indicates the reticle is behind or ahead of the magnifying lens of the optic. Picking out the most suitable kind of rifle glass depends upon what sort of shooting you intend on doing.
First Focal Plane Glass Facts
First focal plane glass (FFP) include the reticle before the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to increase in size based on the level of zoom being used. The outcome is that the reticle measurements are the same at the amplified range as they are at the non magnified distance. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards with no “zoom” is still the same tick at 100 yards with 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where calculations are very little
- Experienced shooters who have an idea for their aim point “hold over” and also “lead” equations for their firearm
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and uses up more visual eyesight space than a SFP reticle
Info About Second Focal Plane Optics
Second focal plane optics (SFP) feature the reticle to the rear of the zoom lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement.
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have more time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots take place within shorter ranges and proximities
- Shooters who like a clearer optic picture with less space used up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Rifle Optic Zoom
The amount of magnification a scope provides 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.
About Single Power Lens Optics
A single power rifle scope and optic will have a magnification 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 scope can not fluctuate considering that it is fixed.
Adjustable Power Lens Scope Details
Variable power rifle scopes can be modified between magnified levels. The power modification is performed by using the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Power Levels and Range Correlations
Here are some advised scope power levels and the ranges where they could be effectively used. High power rifle scope glass will not be as efficient as lower magnification glass because too much zoom can be a negative aspect depending on your shooting distance. The exact same concept applies to extended distances where the shooter needs sufficient power to see exactly where to properly aim the rifle.
Lens Covering for Rifle Glass
All top teir rifle scope and optic lenses are coated. Lens finish can be an essential aspect of a rifle when looking into high end rifle optics and scope setups.
HD Versus ED Lens Coatings
Some glass manufacturers even use “HD” or high-def glass finishes that take advantage of various processes, polarizations, components, and chemicals to extract separate color ranges and viewable definition through lenses. This high-def finishing is frequently used with higher density glass which drops light’s ability to refract through the lens glass. Some scope brands use “HD” to describe “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how certain colors are represented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic deviance or aberration which is also called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration may be visible around things with hard edges and outlines as light hits the item from certain angles.
Scope Lens Single Finishing Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can also have different coatings applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or finish applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can protect 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 covered lens depends on the scope manufacturer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope producers also make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” coated. Being “better” depends on the producer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in constructing the rifle scope.
What to Know About Anti-water Coating
Water on a lens doesn’t help with keeping a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Lots of top of the line and high-end scope makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finishing which is water repellent.
Rifle Scope Installation Alternatives
Installing options for scopes are available in a few choices. There are the standard scope rings which are separately installed to the optic and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also normally can be found in quick release variations which use manual levers which enable rifle shooters to rapidly install and dismount the optics.
Hex Key Rifle Optic Ring Mounting Solutions
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 different rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are developed for long distance accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is excellent for rifles which need a durable, rock solid mount which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abused.
Quick-Release Cantilever Glass Ring Mounting Solutions
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly attach and detach a scope from a rifle. A wide range of scopes can also be switched out if they all use a similar style mount. The quick detach design is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers attach firmly to a flat top design Picatinny rail. This enables the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted while maintaining accuracy. These types of mounts come in convenient for shooting platforms which are transported a lot, to take off the scope glass from the rifle for protection, or for sight systems which are used between a number of rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics manufacturer. It typically costs around $250 USD
Sealing and Gas Purging for Glass Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle optic can ruin a day on the range and your expensive optic by inducing fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of scopes prevent wetness from going into the optical tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Generally, these optics can be immersed within 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be ample moisture prevention for common use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you anticipate taking your rifle aboard watercrafts and are concerned about the scope still working if it is submerged in water and you can still retrieve the rifle.
Gas Purged Scope Tubes
Another component of preventing the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Considering that this area is already occupied by the gas, the optic is less altered by temperature alterations and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which could potentially enable water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to look for.
