[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 1014709, member: 268"] The bullet doesn't care if the rifle is canted, the bullet is responding to gravity. Once the scope is leveled, it also is calibrated to gravity. I think the point being made is that the rifle and scope don't necessarily need to be on exactly the same plane, but the scope needs to be aligned with gravity, as that is the path the bullet is going to follow.
