[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 675095, member: 17844"] The thing to remember is that when you look through the scope in your normal shooting position your eye is in the right position . Not only up and down , left and right but also the correct rotational position. When you get out of the gun and just peer through the scope again you may see the reticle as out of plumb due mainly to rotation of the eyes position . Rob is right , plumb the rifle with a level and then set the reticle to look plumb when in your normal shooting position. Then it is just a matter of putting the gun in a clamp of some kind a resetting the action again to plumb and fixing the scope level to the same level . Some people will have more trouble with this if they suffer from corneal astigmatism of the eye . [/QUOTE]
