[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 10232, member: 313"] Here is how I check without shooting. I place a 3' target board down range at 200yds. I use a 3' level to draw a plumb line right down the center. A thin magic marker works well. While on the bench I carefully level the rifle using a small level on the flat of the scope base. While the rifle is level, I peer through the scope to see if the verticle crosshair is perfectly parallel to the plumb line down range. When this is accomplished I add my scope level and make sure that the bubble is centered when the crosshair is still parallel to the plumb line. The shooting method DOES sound like a good way to confirm that everything has worked as planned. VH [/QUOTE]
