[QUOTE="bowhunthard88, post: 1149575, member: 12575"] I am an absolute fanatic about having a level scope reticle, especially level to the axis with the bore, not necessarily the action. Relying on a flat part of the action also means that you are relying on (assuming) the fact that the action/scope base/rings are top-dead-center, etc. Those two links and a plumb bob/bright chalk line (or laser boresight with level attachment) are what I use to level my reticles. It can be a pain to get them perfect, but I believe it pays for itself, even only in confidence for those short range shots lol.
