[QUOTE="Brent, post: 16225, member: 99"] The anti-cant device, which is nothing but a bubble level, it tells you if your rifle is leaning (canting) to the left or right so your point of impact remains the same because your "point of aim is consistant." When you cant the rifle to the left for example, the farther the degree of cant, the farther the bullet will impact low and left. The angle of the bore in relation the LOS is still the same but, the bore angle is no longer just vertical, it now has a horizontal component and if canted 90 degrees it is all horizontal. The more you cant the rifle the more you are actually removing the vertical correction to compensate for bullet drop while imparting more horizontal correction at the same time. Hope that helps some.
