What You Need to Know About Optics
Rifle scopes allow you to exactly align a rifle at different targets by lining up your eye with the target at range. They accomplish this through zoom using a set of lenses inside the scope. The scope’s positioning can be dialed in for the consideration of different ecological factors like wind speed and elevation increases or decreases to account for bullet drop.
The scope’s function is to understand exactly where the bullet will hit based upon the sight picture you are viewing through the optic as you align the scope’s crosshair or reticle with the target. The majority of modern-day rifle scopes and optics have about 11 parts which are arranged inside and externally on the optic. These optic pieces include the rifle scope’s body, lenses, elevation dials or turrets, objective focus rings, and other parts. See all eleven parts of a rifle optical system.
Rifle Glass Types
Rifle scopes can be either “first focal plane” or “second focal plane” type of scopes. Choosing the optimal type of rifle glass is based around what type of shooting you plan to do.
First Focal Plane Optics
Focal plane scopes (FFP) feature the reticle in front of the zoom lens. These styles of scopes are beneficial for:
- Quick acquisition, far away kinds of shooting
- Shooting situations where estimations are very little
- Experienced shooters who recognize their target “hold over” and “lead” correlations for their weapon
- Shooters who do not mind the reticle is enlarged and uses up more visual sight room than a SFP reticle
Second Focal Plane Scopes
Second focal plane scopes (SFP) come with the reticle behind the zoom lens. 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 measurement.
- Far away types of shooting where shooters have increased time to make ballistic calculations
- Shooting where most shots take place within much shorter spaces and ranges
- Shooters who desire a clearer optic sight picture with less area taken up by the bigger FFP reticle
Rifle Glass Zoom
The quantity of scope magnification you need depends upon the type of shooting you want to do. Almost every style of rifle glass provides some amount of zoom. The amount of magnification a scope provides is established by the diameter, density, and curvatures of the lens glass within the rifle optic. The magnification level of the optic is the “power” of the scope. This implies what the shooter is checking out through the scope is amplified times the power factor of what can typically be seen by human eyes.
Fixed Power Lens Optic Info
A single power rifle scope or optic comes with a zoom number designator like 4×32. This suggests 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 because it is a fixed power scope.
About Adjustable Power Lens Optics
Variable power rifle scopes can be adjusted between magnification increments. These types of scopes will list the zoom amount in a format like 2-10×32. These numbers suggest the zoom of the scope could be set in between 2x and 10x power. This also involves the powers in-between 2 and 10. The power adaptation is accomplished by operating the power ring part of the scope near the back of the scope by the eye bell.
Power Levels and Range Correlations
Here are some suggested scope power settings and the ranges where they could be successfully used. Keep in mind that high magnification scopes will not be as effective as lower magnification level optics and scopes because too much zoom can be a negative thing in certain situations. The same idea goes for longer ranges where the shooter needs to have adequate power to see where to best aim the rifle at the target.
Lens Finish for Rifle Glass
All top teir rifle optic and scope lenses are layered. Lens finishing is a crucial element of a rifle’s setup when purchasing high end rifle optics and scope systems.
HD Versus ED Lens Coatings
Some rifle glass producers even use “HD” or high-definition glass finishes that take advantage of various processes, components, polarizations, and chemicals to extract separate color ranges and viewable target definition through the lens. This HD covering is often used with greater density glass which decreases light’s potential to refract through the lens glass. Some scope makers use “HD” to describe “ED” meaning extra-low dispersion glass. ED deals with how certain colors are presented on the chroma spectrum and the chromatic difference or aberration which is also called color distortion or fringing. Chromatic aberration can be obvious around things with hard outlines as light hits the object from specific angles.
Single Finish Versus Multi-Coating for Glass
Different scope lenses can also have different finishes applied to them. All lenses usually have at least some type of treatment or finishing applied to them before being used in a rifle scope or optic. Due to the fact that the lens isn’t simply a raw piece of glass, they require performance enhancing coatings. It becomes part of the carefully tuned optic. It requires a coating to be applied to it so that the lens will be efficiently usable in lots of types 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 helpful things experienced in the shooting environment while sighting in with the scope. The quality of a single covered lens depends on the scope manufacturer and how much you paid for it.
Some scope manufacturers also make it a point to define if their optic lenses are covered or “multi” covered. Being “better” depends on the producer’s lens treatment technology and the quality of products used in building the rifle scope.
Anti-water Coating for Glass
Water on a lens doesn’t assist with maintaining a clear sight picture through a scope at all. Numerous top of the line and high-end scope makers will coat their lenses with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic covering.
Choices for Installing Rifle Glass on Firearms
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 mounts which cradle the scope. These various kinds of mounts also normally are made in quick release variations which use toss levers which permit rifle shooters to quickly mount and dismount the scope.
Rifle Optic Mounts with Hex Key Rings
Normal, 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 two separate rings to support the optic, and are often made from 7075 T6 billet aluminum which are designed for long range accuracy shooting. This type of scope mount is perfect for rifles which require a long lasting, rock solid 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 types of quick-release rifle scope mounts can be used to quickly connect and take off a scope from a rifle before reattaching it to a different rifle. Numerous scopes can even be swapped out if they all use a similar design mount. These types of mounts come in handy for rifle platforms which are transferred a lot, to remove the optic from the rifle for protecting the scope, or for optics which are used in between several rifles.
Info on Rifle Optic Tube Sealing and Gas Purging
Moisture inside your rifle glass can mess up a day of shooting and your highly-priced optic by triggering fogging and generating residue inside of the scope tube. The majority of optics prevent moisture from going into the optical tube with a system of sealing O-rings which are water resistant. Normally, these scopes 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 content prevention for standard use rifles for hunting and sporting purposes, unless you intend on taking your rifle aboard watercrafts and are worried about the optic still working if it goes over the side and you can still salvage the gun.
Info on Optic Tube Gas Purging
Another part of avoiding the accumulation of moisture within the rifle optic tube is filling the tube with a gas like nitrogen. Given that this area is currently taken up by the gas, the glass is less impacted by climate shifts and pressure differences from the outside environment which could potentially permit water vapor to seep in around the seals to fill the void which would otherwise exist. These are good qualities of a good rifle scope to look for.
