[QUOTE="stvnbrg, post: 1136561, member: 49413"] I think there is some confusion going on. The OP isnt talking about having a canted rifle and scope together,He's talking about level optic, canted rifle. Some here are getting it confused and both articles posted earlier address optic cant which im sure most on here are familiar with. ^^This^^ I listened to a pod cast with David Tubb and he said the same thing. I cant remember the figures he threw out but they were equally negligible as long as the optic is level. In fact, he said he purposely cants his rifles to fit his body better, and encourages shooters to do the same. He advises to get behind your rifle and snap it Try in various positions. Establish a natural hold. Then level your optic and tighten your rings. I dont know about you guys but less than 3/4'' POI shift at a grand is a crap load better than i can shoot and would never in a million years tell the difference. The main guy/owner of Snipers Hide said the same thing as well: Canted rifle makes diddly squat difference as long as its within reasonable amounts and your optic is level. [/QUOTE]
