[QUOTE="HUNTNMT, post: 891753, member: 57757"] I have always mounted my scopes to my rifles by leveling the action and then using a plumb bob to get the crosshair lined up. Has always worked for me. I just got a Vortex PST and want to be able to dial shots with it. I mounted it per Vortex instructions, level the action and then level the scope by putting a bubble on the turret cap. The problem is, when I level the scope like this the cross hairs are canted to the left significantly. When I plumb bob the cross hair, then the turret cap is not level. If I set the cross hair level like I always have, will I have trouble dialing shots since the turret is not aligned?? Is there something wrong with my scope??(brand new) Am I doing something wrong?? Confused and frustrated...someone please give me a hand. [/QUOTE]
