[QUOTE="peterb, post: 288853, member: 12078"] Thanks guys. I had actually watched a demo video on the Horus Vision site and that was much the same as you two have suggested. With Lynx mounts, you actually have an allen screw on each side of the vertical mount to tighten it onto the small poles which come up from base mount . Depending on how you tighten these screws dictates how the scope aligns with the rifle. I can literally have the scope sitting at about 5 degrees off alignment with the bore of the rifle. I can also have it sitting parallel to the bore, but not necessarily vertically over it. That is what I am trying to resolve. Short of measuring their position with a vernier, I can only use the visual appraisal method and want to know if that is sufficiently accurate. Cheers, Pete. [/QUOTE]
