[QUOTE="woods, post: 706468, member: 6042"] Several ways to skin a cat, this is the way I do it I use an EXD device to get the cant out of the rifle when it is in the vise [url=http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/cid=0/k=exd/t=P/ksubmit=y/Products/All/search=exd]Brownells Search : Search Results for "exd" - World's Largest Supplier of Firearm Accessories, Gun Parts and Gunsmithing Tools - BROWNELLS[/url] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/SCOPES/DSCN0486.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/SCOPES/DSCN0481.jpg[/IMG] it aligns the bore and the scope centerline so that the cant is removed While the rifle is in the vise I aim it out the door to a 4' level sitting on a fence 30 yards away. Rotate the scope to align the crosshairs while maintaining the EXD bubble level. Good time to install a ScopLevel like Mike suggested If you are concerned about an awkward hold because you like to hold your rifle at a cant when shooting, I wouldn't be. The difference will be small and it will become natural to hold your rifle uncanted with the ScopLevel which folds down when not in use [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/SCOPES/DSCN1214.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
