Glass Facts
Rifle scopes allow you to exactly align a rifle at various targets by aligning your eye with the target at range. They do this through zoom by employing a series of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s alignment can be adjusted for consideration of many natural elements like wind speed and elevation to make up for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to help the shooter understand exactly where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing via the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the intended target. A lot of contemporary rifle scopes have around eleven parts which are located within and outside of the scope. These parts consist of the rifle scope’s body, lenses, adjustment dials or turrets, focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of rifle scopes.
Rifle Optic Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Considering the best type of rifle scope is based on what type of shooting you plan to do.
About First Focal Plane Optics
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the magnifying lens. This induces the reticle to increase in size based upon 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 without “zoom” is still the identical tick at 100 yards with 5x “zoom”. These kinds of scopes work for:
- Quick acquisition, long distance kinds of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where calculations are small
- Experienced shooters who recognize their aim point “hold over” plus “lead” ratios for their long gun
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is bigger and takes up more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
About Second Focal Plane Scopes
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle behind the magnification lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” 100 yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick.
- Far away forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most of the shots occur within shorter spaces and ranges
- Shooters who select a clearer optic picture without area taken up by the enlarged FFP reticle
Zoom for Glass
The amount of magnification a scope supplies is identified by the size, thickness, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle scope. The magnification of the scope is the “power” of the scope.
About Fixed Single Power Lens Rifle Optics
A single power rifle optic uses a magnification number designator like 4×32. This indicates the magnification power of the scope is 4x power and the objective lens is 32mm. The zoom of this kind of optic can not change because it is set from the factory.
About Variable Power Lens Optics
Variable power rifle scopes use variable power levels. 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.
The Power Level and Range Correlation of Glass
Here are some suggested scope power levels and the ranges where they could be effectively used. Always remember that high magnification scopes will not be as effective as lower powered optics and scopes due to the fact that excessive zoom can be a detractor. The same idea applies to extended ranges where the shooter needs enough power to see exactly where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Scope Lens Finishing
All state-of-the-art rifle optic and scope lenses are covered. Lens finishing can be a significant aspect of a rifle when considering high end rifle optics and scope systems.
ED Versus HD Rifle Scopes
Some rifle scope suppliers also use “HD” or high-definition lense coverings which use various processes, components, rare earth compounds, and polarizations to draw out a wide range of colors and viewable target definition through lenses. This HD coating is typically used with more costly high density lens glass which brings down light’s potential to refract through the lens glass. Some scope makers use “HD” to describe “ED” implying extra-low dispersion glass. ED handles how certain colors are presented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic aberration or deviance which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration is often noticeable over things with hard edges and shapes as light hits the object from particular angles.
Single Rifle Scope Lens Finish Versus Multi-Coating
Different optic lenses can also have various coverings used to them. All lenses normally have at least some type of treatment or finishing used to them prior to being used in a rifle scope or optic.
Single coated lenses have a treatment applied to them which is generally a protective and boosting multi-purpose treatment. This lens treatment can protect the lens from scratches while minimizing 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 money you paid for it. Both the manufacturer and amount are signs of the lens quality.
Some scope manufacturers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” coated. Being “better” depends on the manufacturer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of materials used in developing the rifle scope.
Hydrophobic Lens Coverings
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 optic companies will coat their lenses with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic finishing.
Optic Mounting Alternatives
Mounting solutions for scopes are available in a couple of options. There are the standard scope rings which are separately installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also generally can be found in quick release variations which use manual levers which enable rifle operators to rapidly install and dismount the scope.
Hex Key Rifle Scope Ring Mounting Solutions
Standard, clamp-on type mounting scope rings use hex head screws to position to the flattop design Picatinny scope mounting rails on rifles. These forms of scope mounts use double separate rings to support the scope, and are normally made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for far away precision shooting. This form of scope mount is effective for rifles which require a durable, rock solid mount which will not change despite how much the scope is moved about or jarring the rifle takes. These are the type of mounts you want for a dedicated scope setup on a far away hunting or competitors rifle that will rarely need to be changed or adjusted. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can additionally be used to stop the hex screws from backing out after they are mounted tightly in place. An example of these mounting rings are the 30mm style made by Vortex Optics. The set generally costs around $200 USD
Optic Mounting Solutions with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to rapidly detach a scope and attach it to a different rifle. Several scopes can even be swapped out if they all use a similar style mount. These types of mounts are convenient for long guns which are transported a lot, to swap out the optic from the rifle for protection, or for scopes which are used in between multiple rifles.
Sealing and Gas Purging for Scope Tubes
Moisture inside your rifle scope can ruin a day of shooting and your expensive optic by causing fogging and developing residue inside of the scope tube. A lot of scopes avoid moisture from going into the scope tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant.
Gas Purged Rifle Optic Tubes
Another component of preventing the buildup of moisture within the rifle scope’s tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Because this space is already occupied by the gas, the glass is less affected by temperature alterations and pressure differences from the outside environment which might potentially allow water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the vacuum which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
