Rifle Glass Info
Rifle scopes permit you to precisely align a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target over a distance. They do this through magnifying the target by utilizing a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in to account for varied ecological factors like wind speed and elevation to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are viewing via the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. Many modern rifle scopes have about eleven parts which are arranged internally and on the exterior of the scope. These scope parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other elements. See all eleven parts of optics.
The Types of Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of optics. Picking the optimal type of rifle glass is based around what type of shooting you plan to do.
Info on First Focal Plane Optics
First focal plane glass (FFP) include the reticle in front of the zoom lens. This triggers the reticle to increase in size based on the extent of zoom being used. The result is that the reticle measurements are the same at the amplified distance as they are at the non magnified range. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at 100 yards with no “zoom” is still the very same tick at one hundred yards by using 5x “zoom”. These types of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, far away types of shooting
- Shooting situations where calculations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who have an idea for their target “hold over” as well as “lead” equations for their rifles
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and requires more visual eyesight area than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Scope Details
Second focal plane optics (SFP) come with the reticle behind the magnification lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick reticle measurement.
- Long distance types of shooting where shooters have additional time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots take place within shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic sight picture with less area used up by the larger size FFP reticle
Magnification for Glass
The amount of zoom a scope provides is figured out 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 Scopes
A single power rifle optic and scope comes with a magnification number designator like 4×32. This implies 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 a fixed power optic.
About Variable Power Lens Glass
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. The power adjustment is performed 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 settings and the ranges where they may be successfully used. Always remember that high magnification scopes and optics will not be as effective as lower magnification level optics because too much zoom can be a bad thing. The same goes for extended ranges where the shooter needs sufficient power to see where to best aim the rifle at the target.
About Lens Finish
All contemporary rifle glass lenses are covered. Lens coating is a vital aspect of a shooting platform when thinking about high end rifle optics and scope setups.
HD Versus ED Scope Lens Coatings
Some scope brands also use “HD” or high-definition lens finishings which use various processes, chemicals, aspects, and polarizations to draw out separate colors and viewable quality through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” indicating extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Covering Versus Multi-Coating for Rifle Optics
Different optic lenses can also have various finishes applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some kind of treatment or covering applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic. This is because the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass. It becomes part of the finely tuned optic. It requires a coating to be applied to it so that the lens will be optimally functional in many types of environments, degrees of sunlight (full light VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can offer protection to the lens from scratches while reducing 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 maker and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers similarly make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are layered or “multi” coated. Being “much better” depends on the maker’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in constructing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Scope Lens Finishing
Water on a lens does not assist with preserving 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 anti-water covering.
Alternatives for Installing Optics on Long Guns
Installing options for scopes come in a few choices. There are the basic scope rings which are individually installed to the optic and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also generally are made in quick release versions which use throw levers which permit rifle shooters to quickly mount and dismount the optics.
Rifle Glass Mounting Solutions with Hex Key Rings
Normal, clamp style mounting scope rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop style Picatinny scope mount 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 is designed for long distance precision shooting. This type of scope mount is fine for rifles which need a long lasting, rock solid mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abused.
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Scope Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly detach a scope from a rifle and reattach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a similar designed mount. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers fasten securely 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 back on the rifle while retaining precision. These types of mounts come in practical for shooting platforms which are carried a lot, to take off the glass from the rifle for protection, or for sight systems which are used in between numerous rifles. An example of this mount style is the 30mm mount designed by the Vortex Optics brand. It normally costs around $250 USD
Sealing and Gas Purging for Rifle Glass Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle optic can destroy a day of shooting and your expensive optic by bringing about fogging and producing residue inside of the scope tube. Many scopes prevent moisture from entering the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant.
Gas Purged Optic Tubes
Another component of avoiding the accumulation of moisture inside of the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Given that this area is currently occupied by the gas, the optic is less affected by temperature level changes and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which may possibly permit water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to seek out.
