[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1011991, member: 12443"] Have you taken a walk thru a well stocked tackle shop lately? Well it's getting to be the same with this stuff. Not to say all these things dont work, but are they necessary? I stood and watched Bruce Baer install a new Nightforce on the 338 big baer he had just finished for me a couple years ago. After installing many scopes myself over many years i was anxious to watch a real pro do it. The gun was sitting on his shooting bench at his shop. He put the scope in the rings and lined it up on a post on the target frame a few hundred yards away. Then said to me look in there and see if it suits you. Then commenced tightening it with a plain old screwdriver. Yet many people today would tell you thats not the propper way. Same thing goes for levels on scopes. If a person cant tell if the gun is canted maybe they shouldnt be shooting that far. Theres talkers and theres doers and the talkers gotta own the tackle shop. [/QUOTE]
