What You Need to Know About Rifle Optics
Rifle scopes enable you to specifically align a rifle at different targets by lining up your eye with the target over a range. They accomplish this through magnification by employing a series of lenses within the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for the consideration of various environmental elements like wind speed and elevation decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand exactly 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. A lot of modern-day rifle optics have about 11 parts which are arranged inside and externally on the scope body. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation turrets or dials, objective focus rings, and other components. Learn about the eleven parts of scopes.
Rifle Scope Styles
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” kind of scopes. The form of focal plane an optic has decides where the reticle or crosshair is located relative to the scopes magnification. It simply means the reticle is situated behind or ahead of the magnifying lens of the scope. Choosing the most beneficial kind of rifle glass is based on what style of hunting or shooting you plan on undertaking.
Info About First Focal Plane Optics
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These types of scopes are beneficial for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting scenarios where estimations are minimal
- Experienced shooters who have an idea for their aim point “hold over” and “lead” ratios for their firearm
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and occupies more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Glass Details
Second focal plane optics (SFP) include the reticle to the rear of the zoom lens. In the FFP example with the SFP scope, the 5x “zoom” one hundred yard tick reticle measurement would be 1/5th of the non “zoom” tick measurement.
- Long distance forms of shooting where shooters have extra time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most shots occur within shorter ranges and spaces
- Shooters who prefer a clearer optic sight picture without room taken up by the bigger FFP reticle
Rifle Glass Magnification
The amount of scope zoom you need depends upon the type of shooting you choose to do. Virtually every kind of rifle glass delivers some level of magnification. The amount of magnification a scope delivers is established by the dimension, density, and curvatures of the lenses inside of the rifle optic. The zoom of the scope is the “power” of the opic. This suggests what the shooter is looking at through the scope is magnified times the power element of what can typically be seen by human eyes.
Single Power Lens Rifle Scopes
A single power rifle scope comes with a zoom number designator like 4×32. This means the zoom power of the scope is 4x power while the objective lens is 32mm. The magnification of this type of scope can not change since it is a fixed power scope.
Adjustable Power Lens Rifle Optic Details
Variable power rifle scopes use enhanced power. The power adjustment is achieved by the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
Power and Range
Here are some suggested scope power settings and the ranges where they may be successfully used. High power rifle scope glass will not be as beneficial as lower magnification level rifle scope glass because too much magnification can be a negative aspect depending on your shooting distance. The exact same idea applies to extended ranges where the shooter needs to have enough power to see precisely where to best aim the rifle.
About Rifle Scope Lens Finishes
All modern-day rifle scope lenses are coated. There are different types and qualities of glass coatings. Lens finish is an essential aspect of a rifle’s setup when considering high end rifle optics and scope systems. The glass lenses are among the most crucial components of the glass because they are what your eye looks through while sighting a rifle in on the point of impact. The covering on the lenses shields the lens surface and assists with anti glare capabilities from excess sunshine and color recognition.
HD Versus ED Lenses
Some glass suppliers additionally use “HD” or high-definition glass finishes which use various processes, aspects, chemicals, and polarizations to enhance different colors and viewable target definition through the lens. This high-def finishing is normally used with increased density lens glass which drops light’s potential to refract by means of the lens glass. Some scope brands use “HD” to refer to “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass. ED deals with how certain colors are presented on the chromatic spectrum and the chromatic deviance or aberration which is similarly called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration may be visible around objects with hard shapes as light hits the item from particular angles.
Single Finishing Versus Multi-Coating for Rifle Optics
Various optic lenses can even have various coverings applied to them. All lenses normally have at least some kind of treatment or finish applied to them before they are used in a rifle scope or optic assembly. This is since the lens isn’t just a raw piece of glass. It is part of the carefully tuned optic. It needs to have a covering placed on it so that it will be efficiently functional in numerous types of environments, degrees of sunlight (full light VS shade), and other shooting conditions.
This lens treatment can safeguard the lens from scratches while decreasing 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 maker and how much you paid for it.
Some scope makers also make it a point to specify if their optic lenses are coated or “multi” covered. This means the lens has had numerous treatments applied to the surfaces. If a lens gets several treatments, it can indicate that a manufacturer is taking several actions to combat different natural elements like an anti-glare finishing, a scratch resistant anti-abrasion finishing, followed by a hydrophilic finishing. This also doesn’t necessarily mean the multi-coated lens will perform better than a single layered lens. Being “much better” depends upon the maker’s lens treatment solutions and the quality of glass used in building the rifle optic.
Details on Anti-water Covering
Water on a scope’s lens does not support maintaining a clear sight picture through an optic whatsoever. Numerous top of the line and high-end optic makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic finish. The Steiner Optics Nano-Protection is a good example of this sort of treatment. It treats the surface area of the Steiner glass lens so the H2O molecules can not bind to it or produce surface tension. The outcome is that the water beads move off of the scope to preserve a clear, water free sight picture.
Scope Installation Choices
Installing approaches for scopes come in a few options. There are the basic scope rings which are individually installed to the scope and one-piece mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also typically come in quick release variations which use toss levers which permit rifle shooters to quickly install and dismount the scope.
Hex Key Rifle Glass Rings
Standard, clamp type mounting optic rings use hex head screws to position to the flattop design Picatinny scope mount rails on the tops of rifles. These types of scope mounts use two separate rings to support the optic, and are usually constructed from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are made for far away precision shooting. This kind of scope mount is great for rifles which need a resilient, rock solid mount which will not shift regardless of how much the scope is moved about or abuse the rifle takes. These are the type of mounts you should have for a dedicated scope system on a reach out and touch someone scouting or tournament rifle that will rarely need to be modified or adjusted. Blue 242 Loctite threadlocker can additionally be used on the mount screws to stop the hex screw threads from backing out after they are mounted safely in position. An example of these rings are the 30mm type made by the Vortex Optics company. The set normally costs around $200 USD
Rifle Glass Mounts with Quick-Release Cantilever Rings
These types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly remove a scope and attach it to a different rifle. Multiple scopes can also be switched out if they all use a compatible style mount. These types of mounts are handy for rifle platforms which are transferred a lot, to swap out the optic from the rifle for protecting the scope, or for scopes which are used between numerous rifles.
Details on Optic Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Wetness inside your rifle glass can mess up a day of shooting and your highly-priced optic by resulting in fogging and creating residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of optics protect against moisture from getting in the optical tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Usually, these 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 ample moisture content avoidance for conventional use rifles, unless you plan on taking your rifle aboard watercrafts and are concerned about the optic still performing if it goes overboard and you can still rescue the firearm.
Gas Purged Rifle Scope Tubes
Another element of avoiding the buildup of moisture inside of the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Since this space is already taken up by the gas, the glass is less altered by temperature shifts and pressure differences from the external environment which might potentially allow water vapor to permeate in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise be there. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
