If you enjoy hunting and shooting with precision, then having a properly sighted rifle scope is essential. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of sighting in a thermal rifle scope, specifically the Bearing Optics R 35 millimeter version. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced shooter, this guide will help you achieve accurate and consistent shots with your thermal rifle scope. Let's get started!
1. Introduction
Before diving into the process, let's understand the importance of sighting in your thermal rifle scope. Sighting in involves aligning the reticle of the scope with the point of impact of your bullet, ensuring that your shots hit the intended target accurately. A properly sighted thermal scope will enhance your shooting experience, improve accuracy, and increase your chances of making successful shots.
2. Mounting the Thermal Rifle Scope
To begin, ensure that your thermal rifle scope is securely mounted on your firearm. The Bearing Optics R 35 millimeter scope can easily attach to rifles with a top rail using the QD mount. Proper mounting is crucial for a stable and consistent shooting experience.
3. Features of the Thermal Rifle Scope
Before sighting in, let's familiarize ourselves with the key features of the Bearing Optics R 35 millimeter thermal rifle scope. This knowledge will help us navigate through the sighting in process with ease.
The scope is equipped with an objective focus ring, which allows you to adjust the focus of the thermal image, similar to a daytime scope. Additionally, the eye doppler adjustment ring helps in achieving a clear image for your eye. Familiarize yourself with these features before proceeding further.
4. Sighting In Process
Now that we have covered the necessary groundwork, let's dive into the step-by-step process of sighting in your thermal rifle scope.
4.1 Adjusting the Objective Focus Ring
The first step is to adjust the objective focus ring of your thermal scope. This allows you to focus the thermal image and make it clear, just like a normal daytime scope. Ensure that the image is sharp and crisp before proceeding.
4.2 Using the Eye Doppler Adjustment Ring
Next, utilize the eye doppler adjustment ring to customize the screen's clarity according to your eye. Adjust it until the image appears clear and comfortable for optimal visibility.
4.3 Understanding the Menu Buttons
On the top of the scope, you'll find three buttons. The first button functions as the power on button. A long press will power the rifle scope on. The second button is the menu button. A long press on this button will bring up the menu options. The third and fourth buttons allow you to scroll through the menu and make adjustments to the reticle.
4.4 Zooming and Focusing the Scope
Before taking your first shot, zoom your rifle scope to the maximum magnification available. In the case of the Bearing Optics R 35 millimeter scope, you can zoom it four times, making it an eight-power scope. Additionally, ensure that your objective lens and optical eyepiece are properly focused for a clear image.
4.5 Taking Your First Shot
Once your scope is zoomed and focused, you are ready to take your first shot. Ensure you have a steady position and take aim at your target. Fire the shot and observe the impact.
4.6 Making Adjustments Based on Impact
Upon firing, observe the impact of the bullet displayed as a red dot on the screen. If the impact is not on target, access the menu and go to the sighting in profile. Adjust the reticle using the up, down, left, and right buttons to align it with the point of impact.
4.7 Saving and Realigning for Follow-up Shots
Once you have made your adjustments, save the changes and zoom back in. Ensure that the reticle is centered and aligned with the point of impact. Take a follow-up shot to confirm if any further adjustments are required.
5. Conclusion
Sighting in a thermal rifle scope is a crucial step in achieving accurate and precise shots. By following the step-by-step guide provided above, you can ensure that your Bearing Optics R 35 millimeter thermal scope is properly sighted in for ultimate shooting performance. Happy shooting!
