Long Eye Relief Rifle Scopes

By Mark Adams


The citizens of the United States of America are privileged to have founding fathers that gave them the right to bear arms. Several associations continue to keep this tradition. NRA is one of these associations. The tradition is most visible when it comes to rifles. People use different types of rifles. It is important to know that the most significant part of a rifle is its sight as it is the one used to hit a target. The caliber and magazine size are also important, yet not as essential as the sight.

There are literally hundreds of different scopes to use for every type of rifle. Aperture sights, open sights, red dots, and laser sights all are just a few. Open sights are like a V or U. Aperture align a ring with the front sight. Red dots project just that, a red dot on the target image. Laser sights shoot a laser out onto the target. All of this sight have their own positives and negatives, and most are simply up to the shooter to decide which fits best with his style of shooting.

Shooters that want scopes that do not require them to stay too close to the rears of the scope can make use of long eye relief scopes. It has an extended range, making it still useful even if the shooter is a bit far from the scope. Moreover, the shooter will still have a view of the entire field as offered by the scope. This particular kind of scope is also available in various types. Most of them offer clear aiming distance of around 12 inches and above. There are likewise several companies that manufacture this type of scope such as Leapers and Leatherwood.

Most are ready to be installed on the rifle and some come with batteries. They are usually light, at most only a few pounds and some even have a magnification factor. All of these add up to a deadly addition to anyone's arsenal. It is especially useful for someone who wants precision aiming but isn't always able to get up close and personal to their scope. Fly hunt, drive hunt, and close quarter combat missions are just a few examples that this type of scope is specifically designed for. As an added bonus, many of these scopes have built-in illumination that allows for accurate shooting in low-light conditions.

It is a constitutional right for people to have weapons in the United States. With the availability of long eye relief scopes, people can now enjoy precise shooting.
