[QUOTE="gunner69, post: 848446, member: 35270"] If all you want to do is confirm vertical crosshair than the plumb line confirms this perfectly and can be done no matter how canted the rifle is below it. But what long range shooters want is this crosshair alignment with gravity and the rifle to be equally aligned on opposing planes. This way when a shooter acquires a target, cant errors cannot be attributed to the rifle ie action cant or scope cant - either cause the same issues when trying to take a level shot at a target. Errors of rifle/scope cant then are identifiable to the shooter vs. the rig and can be corrected and are easily identifiable. But yes anyone could theoretically align vertical crosshairs on the target level while having a rifle below 90 degrees twisted. It would be hard as hell but possible. [/QUOTE]
