[QUOTE="whiskey3, post: 369530, member: 23080"] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I use the Leupold zero point when leveling a scope. My way is a bit wacky but with my OCD disorder it works. First, I level the rifle usually with a file carefully place in the action across the rails. Then I level the zero point with a small torpedo level across the top. I then level the crosshairs to the "reticle" in the zero point and tighten down the rings with the proper eye relief. Now my OCD kicks in and I think something has moved and I take it all apart and do it again, after repeating this a couple of times I will take the rifle to range and zero the rifle at 100 yards and then dial in 500 yards and shoot it at 100 yards and check for perpendicularity with a level.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
