[QUOTE="Jerry D, post: 254292, member: 14452"] I would think the way to make it the most accurate would be that so the level just touches both edges of the scope. That way you can line the entire cross hair up with the edge of the level. The longer the level the more precise you will get. Adjust the magnification of the scope accordingly. You may also then have to increase or decrease the distance in which you look at the + created by the level/plumb bob. After this you can do simple cant tests by firing the rifle and raising the vertical adjustment while aiming at the same aim point. If the bullets rise straight up your good, if they go up and a tad left/right then you need to twist your scope a tad. [/QUOTE]
