[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1547589, member: 54178"] SEE? I knew there was a reason to get the Talley top half ring with bubble level on my Browning X-Bolt Pro scope mount. Actually I'm used to using a level on my Ruger Precision Rifle for competition and figured I wanted to use a very compact level on my hunting rifle. Talley makes very nice stuff. My rings are even burnt bronze Cerakoted to match my rifle. ("Matchy, matchy", ya know) Eric B. BTW, getting that Talley bubble level top half ring to be exactly level on a leveled rifle was not fun! Tightening the 4 ring screws to get it level required a lot if slow tightening. Then when fairly snug I criss-crossed the tightening sequence with my inch/pound torque wrench to 17 in./lb. and re-checked level. Had to loosen once and re-start the sequence all over but got it the second time. [/QUOTE]
