A classic lens-coating material is magnesium fluoride, which reduces reflected light from 5% to 1%. Modern lens coatings consist of complex multi-layers and reflect only 0.25% or less to yield an image with maximum brightness and natural colors. Determined by the optical properties of the lenses used and intended primary use of the telescopic sight, different coatings are preferred, to optimize light transmission dictated by the human eye luminous efficiency function variance.

If a target of a known diameter of 16inches fills just half of the total post-to-post distance (i.e. filling from sight center to post), then the distance to target is approximately 200 yards (180m). With a target of a diameter of 16inches that fills the entire sight picture from post to post, the range is approximately 100 yards. Other ranges can be similarly estimated accurately in an analog fashion for known target sizes through proportionality calculations. Overall, this scope is a fine choice for hunters thanks to its durability and protection against inclement weather. The glowing reticle is another excellent addition which makes it easy to shoot during dusk or dawn. Finally, the matte finish is of great importance for any hunter that wants to stay hidden from their target until the right moment. My rating: 4.5/5 Only 12 of the initial 24 students are then selected to go on to Basic Sniper Course. This is a 5 week course that covers use of the L115a3 rifle, judging distance, camouflage and concealment, stalking, map reading and observation, shooting, sniper knowledge and RAF Regiment sniper doctrine and tactics. The course culminates in a 2-week-long practical exercise. This includes 'the stalk' - in which students attempt to infiltrate across 1.5km of terrain, get in position, fire their weapon and withdraw to a safe area, all without being spotted by the instructors. A telescopic sight, commonly called a scope informally, is an optical sighting device based on a refracting telescope. [1] It is equipped with some form of a referencing pattern – known as a reticle – mounted in a focally appropriate position in its optical system to provide an accurate point of aim. Telescopic sights are used with all types of systems that require magnification in addition to reliable visual aiming, as opposed to non-magnifying iron sights, reflector (reflex) sights, holographic sights or laser sights, and are most commonly found on long-barrel firearms, particularly rifles, usually via a scope mount. Similar devices are also found on other platforms such as Artillery, Tanks and even Aircraft. [2] [3] The optical components may be combined with optoelectronics to add night vision or smart device features. If intending to stay at a fixed location for a long period, a sniper team may establish a hide by digging into the earth and covering the hide with camouflaged netting.A qualified British Army sniper is eligible to wear insignia with a crossed rifles design and an 'S' between the barrels.

That’s an extraordinary range, even for experienced marksmen. Thankfully, the glass available for this scope is particularly high quality and provides a bright sight picture even in low light conditions. To make things even better, the reticle can be illuminated to improve your accuracy during dusk or dawn. It’s an FFP reticle, too. Confusingly, some older telescopic sights, mainly of German or other European manufacture, have a different classification where the second part of the designation refers to light-gathering power. In these cases, a 4×81 (4× magnification) sight would be presumed to have a brighter sight picture than a 2.5×70 (2.5× magnification), but the objective lens diameter would not bear any direct relation to picture brightness, as brightness is affected also by the magnification factor. The 5.5X magnification comes with an aim walking movement speed and aim down sight speed boost, when compared to the default scopes on most sniper rifles. This is crucial when it comes to close-quarters combat, ensuring you don’t get lost in the tunnel vision of a longer magnification scope.

Telescopic sights are usually designed for the specific application for which they are intended. Those different designs create certain optical parameters.

There are tons of sniper scopes on the market, so identifying which scope will be perfect for your needs or rifle requires you to consider all their major attributes. Let’s go over the main things to consider when you are choosing the sniper scope to buy. Durability If the helmeted head of a person (≈ 0.25 m tall) fits between the fourth bar and the horizontal line, the person is at approximately 100 meters' distance. By means of a mathematical formula "[Target size] ÷ [Number of mil intervals] × 1000 = Distance", the user can easily calculate the distance to a target, as a 1-meter object is going to be exactly 1milliradian at a 1000-meter distance. For example, if the user sees an object known to be 1.8meters tall as something 3mils tall through the telescopic sight, the distance to that object will be 600meters (1.8 ÷ 3 × 1000 = 600).

It is usually expressed in millimeters.

Telescopic sights come with a variety of different reticles, ranging from the simple crosshairs to complex reticles designed to allow the shooter to range a target, to compensate for the bullet drop and windage required due to crosswinds. A user can estimate the range to objects of known size, the size of objects at known distances, and even roughly compensate for both bullet drop and wind drifts at known ranges with a reticle-equipped sight.
