What You Need to Know About Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes permit you to specifically align a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target over a range. They do this through magnification using a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for the consideration of separate natural elements like wind and elevation increases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s purpose is to help the shooter understand precisely where the bullet will hit based on the sight picture you are seeing via the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. A lot of modern rifle optics have around 11 parts which are located internally and externally on the scope body. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials, focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle glass.
The Varieties of Rifle Scopes
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Choosing the best type of rifle optic depends on what type of shooting you plan on doing.
First Focal Plane Glass Details
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the magnification lens. This causes the reticle to increase in size based on the extent of zoom being used. The benefit is that the reticle measurements are the same at the magnified range as they are at the non magnified distance. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at 100 yards with no “zoom” is still the exact same tick at 100 yards with 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance types of shooting
- Shooting situations where computations are minor
- Experienced shooters who recognize their aim point “hold over” and also “lead” correlations for their weapon
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and takes up more visual sight space 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 causes the reticle to stay at the very same scale in relation to the quantity of zoom being used. The final result is that the reticle measurements shift based on the magnification chosen to shoot over lengthier ranges considering that the reticle markings represent various increments which vary with the magnification level. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement. These styles of glass work for:
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most shots take place within shorter ranges and distances
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic picture without area taken up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Magnification for Optics
The extent of scope magnification you need on your optic depends upon the type of shooting you wish to do. Almost every kind of rifle scope provides some level of magnification. The level of magnification a scope gives is determined by the dimension, density, and curvatures of the lens glass within the rifle scope. The magnification level of the optic is the “power” of the glass. This means what the shooter is looking at through the scope is amplified times the power element of what can generally be seen by human eyes.
Info About Single Power Lens Optics
A single power rifle optic and scope will have 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 zoom of this kind of scope can not change given that it is a set power scope.
About Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Optics
Variable power rifle scopes have adjustable power. These types of scopes will list the magnification level in a configuration like 2-10×32. These numbers imply the zoom of the scope can be adjusted between 2x and 10x power. This always includes the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power manipulation is accomplished using the power ring part of the scope near the rear of the scope by the eye bell.
Optic Power Level and Range Correlation
Here are some advised scope powers and the ranges where they may be effectively used. Always remember that higher power scopes will not be as efficient as lower powered glass because excessive magnification can be a detractor. The same idea goes for extended ranges where the shooter needs sufficient power to see exactly where to properly aim the rifle.
Info on Lens Coating
All modern rifle scope and optic lenses are layered. There are various types and qualities of glass coverings. When researching luxury rifle scope setups, Lens finish can be a vital component of defining the rifle’s capability. The lenses are one of the most vital components of the glass considering that they are what your eye sees through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The finish on the lenses shields the lens surface area as well as assists with anti glare from excess sunlight and color visibility.
Info on Rifle Optic Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope makers likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens coatings which use various procedures, aspects, chemicals, and polarizations to draw out separate colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” to signify the lens has extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Glass Lens Finishing Versus Multi-Coating
Different scope lenses can also have various coatings applied to them. All lenses generally have at least some type of treatment or finish applied to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic. This is since the lens isn’t simply a raw piece of glass. It becomes part of the finely tuned optic. It must have a covering placed on it so that the lens will be optimally usable in numerous kinds of environments, degrees of light (full VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can safeguard the lens from scratches while decreasing glare and other less useful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single coated lens depends on the scope producer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” covered. Being “much better” depends on the producer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in constructing the rifle scope.
Anti-water Glass Lens Finish
Water on a scope’s lens doesn’t support retaining a clear sight picture through an optic whatsoever. Many top of the line or premium scope manufacturers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finish. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a fine example of this kind of treatment. It treats the exterior surfaces of the Steiner scope lens so the water molecules can not bind to it or develop surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads roll off of the scope to preserve a clear, water free sight picture.
Choices for Installing Scopes on Firearms
Installing approaches for scopes can be found in a few options. There are the basic scope rings which are separately mounted to the scope and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These different kinds of mounts also generally are made in quick release variations which use manual levers which allow rifle shooters to rapidly install and remove the optics.
Hex Key Optic Ring Mounting Solutions
Normal, clamp design 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 two 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 require a durable, sound mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Quick-Release Cantilever Rifle Scope Ring Mounts
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly take off a scope and attach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be swapped out if they all use a similar style mount. These types of mounts come in handy for long guns which are transferred a lot, to remove the optic from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are used in between multiple rifles.
About Glass Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle optic can wreck a day of shooting and your pricey optic by causing fogging and producing residue inside of the scope tube. Many scopes prevent humidity from getting in the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are waterproof. Generally, these water-resistant scopes can be submerged within 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can force moisture past the O-rings. This should be more than enough moisture prevention for common use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you plan on taking your rifle boating and are worried about the optic still performing if it falls overboard and you can still salvage the firearm.
Gas Purged Rifle Glass Tubes
Another part of avoiding the buildup of wetness within the rifle scope’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 condition shifts and pressure differences from the outdoor environment which may potentially enable water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to seek out.
