Tube construction, steel or aluminum alloy
The question of which is better for riflescope tube construction, Steel or
Aluminum, has been pondered for many years, and the answer still remains
the same. Both have properties that make each one of them advantageous.
Steel tubes are the most resistant to external damage, while aluminum alloy
offers a lighter product. But both provide strong durable outer protection for
the internal mechanism and optics when used properly. Meopta is proud to be
able to offer both. If getting the highest level of strength and durability is most
important, then try our Artemis 2000 or 2100 Series. If weight is your main
concern, then our Artemis 3000 and MeostarTM series are just what you are
looking for. Construction of Meopta riflescopes with steel tubes offers an
additional advantage. As with virtually any material, an extreme temperature
change can cause expansion and contraction and thus vary the alignment of
inner and outer mechanisms, resulting in minor shifts in parallax at 100 M.
However, with the consistent properties of steel we are able design and build
riflescopes that control this problem. As a result, null parallax shift at 100 M in
production means null parallax shift at 100 M in the hottest African or the
coldest Alaskan environment!
Quadratic course of adjustment
Quadratic course of adjustment means that windage and elevation adjustments
are mutually independent and as such, guarantees a full range of movement in
any direction. The illustration below shows a comparison of a full range of
adjustment for a Meopta riflescope and a „no-name“ riflescope. You will note that in
some directions, the adjustment range of the „no-name“ riflescope exceeds the
Meopta range. However, in important (especially in the diagonal or windage
direction) directions it attains insufficient adjustment range. Irregular circumference
of the adjustment field of the „noname“ scope indicates that horizontal and vertical
movements are not independent (especially in extreme positions) and are each
affected when only one is adjusted, i.e., when turning the windage adjustment knob the reticle also moves in the
vertical or elevation direction.
Reticle in front or rear focal plane
Placement of the reticle (crosshairs) in the front focal plane (behind the objective lens) means that with increased
magnification both the target image and the reticle thickness increase (Artemis 2000, 2100; Meostar
R1 3-12x56 model offer front focal plain reticles). Placing the reticle in the rear focal plane (in front of the eyepiece)
allows the reticle to maintain its virtual size throughout the entire magnification range. (The Meostar series offer the
reticle in the rear focal plain, see the chart below)
So shortly:
• all fixed magnification riflescopes are not affected by the reticle position
• a reticle positioned in the front focal plane enables the user to use the reticle distance estimation scale and
opitches of thick lines for measuring distance at any magnification.
Meostar R1r 3-12x56
Contrary to its predecessor (Meostar R1 3-12x56 model) Meostar R1r 3-12x56
has the reticle located in the rear focus plane, which logically makes
the Meostar R1 line complete.
Use of the distance scale with 4A, 4B reticles
To use the distance scale in your riflescope, simply line up the target or the portion
of the target, whose height you estimate to be 0.5 m (this dimension is indicated by the
number 0.5 to the left of the scale), on the bottom line in the ranging scale. Once you
have done this then the number that coincides with the top of your target indicates the
targets distance in hundreds of meters. For example, if the body trunk height of an adult
Roebuck is estimated to be 0.5 m, then as seen in the illustration this Roebuck is approximately 200 meters away
from the shooter.
