Observation distance range of the scope

The observation distance of a scope mainly depends on its magnification and optical quality. Taking a 4x magnification 32x optical scope as an example, its theoretical maximum effective aiming distance can reach 1000 meters. After conversion, the distance of 1000 meters is equivalent to 250 meters after 4 times magnification, which means that the target beyond 250 meters can still be clearly visible after 4 times magnification. However, in actual use, the imaging clarity at a distance of 1000 meters is affected by many factors, including the optical quality of the scope, ambient lighting conditions, and the size and contrast of the target itself.

Factors affecting the observation distance

• Magnification:The magnification of the scope directly affects its observation distance. High magnification scopes can observe longer distances, but they may also reduce the clarity and stability of the image.
• Optical quality:High-quality optical scopes can provide clearer images at longer distances. Scopes with high resolution and high contrast perform better at longer distances.
• Environmental factors:Ambient lighting conditions, target size and contrast, and background complexity can all affect the observation effect. In the case of insufficient light or complex background, the observation distance will be affected.

Differences in the observation distance of different types of scopes

Different types of scopes have different observation distances. In addition, snipers in actual operations usually use 6x or 8x scopes, which can accurately shoot within the range of 600 meters to 1000 meters.
