[QUOTE="kc0pph, post: 617056, member: 35934"] Hang a plum bob across the room (Thick sting and a weight on the bottom) Take off the scope, place a level on the base (Make sure its perpendicular to the bore) and level out the rife in some sort of vise. after it is level and secure put the scope on loosly and align the crosshair with the string. Tighten your screws and be careful my tasco that i used to use would move when you tightened the screws. After that run your elevation all the way up and make sure you are still on the string if not, you may be slightly off in your mounting or your tasco can be like mine and just a ***. TasCos are great for 100-200Yd hunting past that they are worthless in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
