[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1463415, member: 1521"] Keep in mind also that a reticle often is not, and may not need to be, plumb to anything. That is, if you're dialing elevation and holding into wind & mirage(like I do), a reticle can be a simple dot. I don't like dot aim points, as I feel they wonder to the eye. I aim only with a crosshair intersection. I know with many scopes(even high dollar) the actual crosshair is not square to elevation adjustment. There is a manufacturing tolerance there. I only mention this because it's a decision point about what you're going to choose, when you can't get every item to align. To simply declare that everything should be square,, well, that is often not really the case and sometimes you have to play with cards dealt. You can, no problem. [/QUOTE]
