Reasons why Aimpoint Sights with gold bead face are highly preferable
There are a number of sight options especially for hunting rifles. The usual options are aperture sights, open iron sights, and optical sights. One or two types of open iron sights come fitted on many rifles. The rifle users need to purchase the other types separately and install them on their rifles to gain additional strength. Aimpoint is a well-known brand of open sight scopes to be used with magnum handguns and shorter action rifles.
Open sight scopes consist of a front sight and a rear sight. The rear sight is un upright metal blade transversely mounted. The metal blade comes with a ‘V’ or ‘U’ notch. It is either mounted on to the rifle barrel or secured in a dovetail slot so that the notch is placed in line with the shooter or hunger’s eye. The front sight of an open sight scope is shaped as a vertical blade dovetailed and screwed on to the barrel’s muzzle end. It is, sometimes, protected by a metal hood that is removable. The removable metal hood is one of the protective features of Aimpoint.
The face of Aimpoint sights comes with a gold bead that is meant to enhance the visibility of an object in dim light. Often, the front sight face of hunting scopes comes with an ivory, red or gold colored bead affixed to it. Most pro hunters and shooters prefer the gold bead tha is, in fact, a brass alloy. They reason that traditional gold bead offers more durability than other colored plastic beads.
One problem with the use of front sight beads is their tendency to aim away from the direction of the light. A highlight is reflected by the curved surface of front sight beads in the direction towards the sun that, in turn, results in a false aiming point. The non-reflective black surface around the front sight with an undercut gold bead face is the most preferred front sight type. Aimpoint Sights are of this type. That is why there is no such problem with Aimpoint scopes for hunting and shooting rifles. Here are some beneficial features of these hunting riflescopes with gold front sight face:
