Rifle Optic Info
Rifle scopes permit you to specifically align a rifle at various targets by lining up your eye with the target at range. They do this through zoom by using a set of lenses within the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adapted for the consideration of different ecological factors like wind speed and elevation increases to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help the shooter understand precisely where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are seeing via the scope as you line up the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended point of impact. Most contemporary rifle scopes have around eleven parts which are found within and externally on the scope. These parts include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, windage and elevation dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of optics.
Rifle Glass Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Opting for the best type of rifle scope is based around what type of shooting you plan to do.
About First Focal Plane Optics
First focal plane scopes (FFP) include the reticle in front of the zoom lens. This causes the reticle to increase in size based on the level of magnification being used. The benefit is that the reticle measurements are the same at the magnified distance as they are at the non magnified distance. One tick on a mil-dot reticle at one hundred yards without “zoom” is still the same tick at 100 yards by using 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 target “hold over” and also “lead” equations for their rifles
- Shooters who don’t mind the reticle is bigger and occupies more visual sight space than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Optic Facts
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle to the rear of the magnifying lens. This causes the reticle to stay at the exact same size in connection with the amount of magnification being used. The effect is that the reticle measurements evolve based on the zoom employed to shoot over lengthier ranges considering that the markings present different increments which differ with the magnification. In the FFP example with the SFP optic, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick. These particular kinds of optics are beneficial for:
- Far away types of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic estimations
- Shooting where most of the shots happen within shorter proximities and ranges
- Shooters who would like a clearer optic sight picture without room taken up by the larger sized FFP reticle
Scope Magnification
The quantity of magnification a scope offers is identified by the size, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
Info on Fixed Single Power Lens Rifle Glass
A single power rifle scope and optic comes with a magnification number designator like 4×32. This implies the magnification power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this type of optic can not adjust given that it is a fixed power scope.
Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Scopes
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. The power modification is performed by using the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
Power Levels and Range
Here are some advised scope power levels and the ranges where they can be successfully used. High power glass will not be as useful as lower magnification level rifle scope glass considering too much zoom can be a bad thing. The same idea applies to extended distances where the shooter needs enough power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Covering for Optics
All modern rifle optic and scope lenses are covered in special coatings. There are various types and qualities of glass lens coverings. Lens finish is an important aspect of a rifle when considering high end rifle optics and targeting systems. The lenses are among the most significant parts of the glass due to the fact that they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the target. The finish on the lenses safeguards the lens exterior and even assists with anti glare capabilities from excess light and color perception.
About Optic Lens Coatings – HD Versus ED
Some scope makers likewise use “HD” or high-definition lens finishings which use different processes, polarizations, elements, and chemicals to draw out separate colors and viewable definition through the lens. Some scope manufacturers use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass.
Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Various optic lenses can likewise have different coverings used to them. All lenses normally have at least some type of treatment or coating used to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
This lens treatment can offer protection to the lens from scratches while decreasing glare and other less helpful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single coated lens depends on the scope manufacturer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope makers likewise make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” coated. This suggests the lens has had numerous treatments applied to the surfaces of the glass. If a lens receives numerous treatments, it can show that a producer is taking several steps to fight various natural factors like an anti-glare coating, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finish, followed by a hydrophilic coating. This additionally doesn’t always indicate the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single covered lens. Being “much better” is dependent on the manufacturer’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of glass used in creating the rifle optic.
Glass Lens Anti-water Covering
Water on a lens does not help with keeping a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Lots of top of the line and high-end optic makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic coating which is water repellent.
Optic Installing Alternatives
Mounting solutions for scopes can be found in a few options. There are the standard scope rings which are individually installed to the optic and one-piece scope mounts which cradle the scope. These various types of mounts also usually are made in quick release variations which use throw levers which permit rifle operators to quickly mount and remove the scope.
Hex Key Scope Ring Mounts
Standard, clamp style 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 separate rings to support the optic, and are made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are developed for long distance precision shooting. This type of scope mount is wonderful for rifles which need a resilient, sound mounting solution which will not move no matter how much the scope is moved or abuse the rifle takes.
Scope Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These kinds of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly connect and remove a scope from a rifle. If they all use a similar design mount, several scopes can often be switched in the field. The quick detach mount style is CNC crafted from anodized 6061 T6 aluminum and the mounting levers connect tightly 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 back on the rifle while keeping accuracy. These types of mounts come in handy for shooting platforms which are carried a lot, to take off the scope glass from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are used between several rifles. An example of this mount type is the 30mm mount from the Vortex Optics brand. It usually costs around $250 USD
Scope Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle scope can destroy a day of shooting and your highly-priced optic by triggering fogging and creating residue within the scope’s tube. Many scopes prevent wetness from entering the optical tube with a series of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Generally, these optics can be submerged beneath 20 or 30 feet of water before the water pressure can push moisture past the O-rings. This should be more than enough moisture prevention for basic use rifles, unless you plan on taking your rifle on your motorboat and are concerned about the scope still performing if it is submerged in water and you can still salvage the firearm.
Scope Gas Purging
Another element of preventing the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle optic’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is already occupied by the gas, the scope is less affected by condition changes and pressure distinctions from the external environment which could potentially permit water vapor to leak in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a decent rifle scope to look for.
