[QUOTE="Broz, post: 599620, member: 7503"] I feel it is more important on a scope that is used by dialing in elevation for a long shot, that the reticle tracks true to plumb line when the level on the rifle is level. This needs to be checked by setting up a plum line, firing at an aim point at the bottom of the line, then cranking up elevation to 20 or more moa and re-shooting at the first point of aim. The last bullet needs to be on that line. If it is not the scope is tracking off and needs to be rotated till it is. Remember to always check the rifle level before braking the shot. Jeff [/QUOTE]
