What You Need to Know About Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes permit you to precisely aim a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through magnifying the target by utilizing a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be adapted to take into account varied environmental aspects like wind speed and elevation to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help shooters understand precisely where the bullet will land based on the sight picture you are seeing via the optic as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the target. The majority of contemporary rifle scopes have about 11 parts which are located inside and outside of the scope body. These scope parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. Learn about the eleven parts of glass.
The Types of Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” kind of scopes. The kind of focal plane a scope has decides where the reticle or crosshair is located in regard to the optic’s zoom. It literally implies the reticle is situated behind or in front of the magnifying lens of the optic. Choosing the most suitable style of rifle glass depends on what kind of shooting or hunting you intend on doing.
First Focal Plane Optic Info
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These types of scopes are useful for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting situations where calculations are marginal
- Experienced shooters who understand their aim point “hold over” plus “lead” correlations for their weapon
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and requires more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Optic Facts
Second focal plane glass (SFP) feature the reticle to the rear of the zoom lens. This induces the reticle to remain at the same dimensions in relation to the volume of zoom being used. The outcome is that the reticle dimensions change based on the zoom chosen to shoot over greater ranges because the reticle measurements present distinct increments which fluctuate with the magnification. 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. These types of optics work for:
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic computations
- Shooting where most shots take place within shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic sight picture without room taken up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Zoom for Optics
The level of scope zoom you need on your optic depends upon the style of shooting you want to do. Virtually every style of rifle glass offers some level of zoom. The quantity of magnification a scope offers is established by the diameter, thickness, and curvatures of the lens glass inside of the rifle scope. The magnification level of the optic is the “power” of the scope. This suggests what the shooter is observing through the scope is magnified times the power element of what can generally be seen by human eyes.
Info on Fixed Single Power Lens Optics
A single power rifle scope comes with a magnification number designator like 4×32. This means the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this type of optic can not change because it is a fixed power optic.
Variable Power Lens Scope Details
Variable power rifle scopes can be adjusted between magnification levels. It will note the zoom amount in a format like 2-10×32. These numbers indicate the magnification of the scope can be changed in between 2x and 10x power. This always includes the power levels in-between 2 and 10. The power modification is accomplished by making use of the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
Optic Power Level and Range Correlation
Here are some recommended scope power levels and the distances where they may be effectively used. High power scopes will not be as beneficial as lower magnification level glass because too much magnification can be a bad thing. The exact same concept applies to longer distances where the shooter needs increased power to see precisely where to properly aim the rifle.
Lens Finish for Rifle Scopes
All contemporary rifle scope lenses are covered in special coatings. There are various types and qualities of glass coverings. When thinking about luxury rifle optical systems, Lens coating can be a critical component of a rifle. The lenses are among the most crucial components of the scope given that they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The finish on the lenses offers protection to the lens exterior and improves anti glare from refracted sunshine and color recognition.
Details on Glass Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope manufacturers also use “HD” or high-definition lens coatings which use different processes, components, chemicals, and polarizations to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope makers use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating for Optics
Different optic lenses can likewise have different coverings applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or covering applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can protect 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 manufacturer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers likewise make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” coated. This suggests the lens has several treatments applied to the surfaces of the glass. If a lens gets numerous treatments, it can establish that a producer is taking multiple steps to combat various natural factors like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finish, followed by a hydrophilic finish. This also does not necessarily indicate the multi-coated lens is better than a single covered lens. Being “better” depends upon the maker’s lens treatment technology and the quality of materials used in creating the rifle glass.
Anti-water Rifle Optic Lens Finish
Water on a lens doesn’t help with preserving a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Lots of top of the line and military grade scope companies will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finishing.
Rifle Optic Installing Alternatives
Installing solutions for scopes can be found in a couple of choices. There are the basic scope rings which are separately installed to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These different kinds of mounts also usually can be found in quick release variations which use throw levers which enable rifle shooters to rapidly install and dismount the scope.
Rifle Optic Mounting Solutions with Hex Key Rings
Standard, clamp-on type mounting optic rings use hex head screws to mount to the flattop style Picatinny scope mounting rails on the tops of rifles. These varieties of scope mounts use a pair of separate rings to support the optic, and are normally made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are made for far away accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is great for rifles which need to have a durable, hard use mount which will not move despite how much the scope is moved or jarring the rifle takes. These are the style of mounts you want for a devoted scope setup on a long distance scouting or competitors long gun which will hardly ever need to be altered or recalibrated. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can additionally be used on the screws to keep the hex screws from wiggling out after they are mounted safely in position. An example of these rings are the 30mm style from the Vortex Optics brand. The set usually costs around $200 USD
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Scope Ring Mounts
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly connect and take off a scope from a rifle. Several scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a complementary style mount. The quick detach design is CNC machined from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers attach firmly to a flat top style Picatinny rail. This permits the scope to be sighted in while on the rifle, taken off of the rifle, and remounted while preserving precision. These kinds of mounts come in practical for shooting platforms which are hauled around a lot, to remove the optic from the rifle for protection, or for aiming systems which are adopted between a number of rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics brand. It normally costs around $250 USD
Rifle Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle scope can ruin a day of shooting and your pricey optic by causing fogging and producing residue within the scope tube. Many optics prevent wetness from getting in the scope tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Normally, these water resistant scopes can be submerged within 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be more than enough humidity avoidance for basic use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you anticipate taking your rifle sailing and are worried about the scope still functioning if it is submerged in water and you can still salvage the rifle.
Rifle Optic Gas Purging
Another component of avoiding the accumulation of wetness inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Since this area is already taken up by the gas, the scope is less altered by temperature alterations and pressure distinctions from the outdoor environment which could possibly allow water vapor to leak 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.
