[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1236019, member: 40852"] I used something like this tool, except I made one. Basically I strive to get the vertical to go through the center of the barrel. The way I do this is to first use a plumb line hanging at a distance and mount a scope level on the scope tube. I usually do this at the 100 yd range but if you have something you could look at with the scope to give you a vertical reference that should work. Then I use the tool to use gravity to line up the centerline of the scope with the centerline of the barrel. When that relationship is fixed then rotate the scope so that the level is showing level.
