[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 870847, member: 10291"] I have also used the Bushnell/Cabelas grid collimators for quite some time. It works very well. In addition to testing turret movement, it can also be used to test vertical alignment(plumb) of the reticle through a 20-30 MOA elevation range, reticle aligment with the bore, attach the scope level, and insure everything is aligned. Good levels have to be used on the rifle rails and scope, and a secure rifle vice to do this. I will always do a tall target test at 100 yards when initially zeroing the rifle, to confirm actual click value, and plumb of the reticle. I have rarely, if ever had to realign the scope using this approach. I have found a couple of scopes over the years that had faulty tracking without firing a shot. You can also recheck scope tracking and alignment after a scope/rifle was subjected to a severe shock from a fall or other mishap. [/QUOTE]
