[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1462931, member: 313"] No offense but (IMO) this is incorrect. As an extreme example, what if you set the rifle on a 45deg angle and then leveled your crosshair with a plumb-line at distance. Then you adjust a scope level to indicate when the scope is level. Try dialing up or using your hashmarks at a distant object and see how far off your impact is. The verticle line running from the center of the scope through the centerline of the bore must be true BEFORE you level the crosshair with a plumb-line or other point of verticle reference. Just my 2 cents and that may be all its worth. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
