[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1579056, member: 40852"] I've been in the camp which believes the scope needs to be plumb with the action. Lately I'm thinking that this might not be as critical as I think it is. Over on Snipers Hide this topic is discussed on a regular basis. Some well known shooters set their rifle up this way. Those that compete at an exact/constant distance can dial the scope to zero the weapon system and that should work fine. One example that has me thinking that this might be alright is when considering the sight location on a bazooka or RPG. That sight is on the side of the weapon. Maybe the reason that system works is because the sight isn't lined up to cause the projectile to hit exactly where it's pointing, but rather to the side. By the same amount as the sight is offset from the bore. In other words the sight is parallel with the bore. [/QUOTE]
