[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1282292, member: 54178"] [B][/B]So far I know of only two scopes with internal bubble levels - SIG and Kronus. For tactical and long range scopes [I]canting[/I] is the kiss of death. You may think you made a bad wind call but in fact you may have canted just a bit on that 800 yard shot. For my Bushnell Elite 3.5 - 21 x 50 tactical scope on my Ruger Precision Rifle I use the large size Vortex bubble level, mounted close to the ocular end of my scope. This is for PRS and other long range competition but is a PITA for a hunting scope and could get broken in the field. SO, let's ask manufacturers of our favorite long range scopes to incorporate internal bubble levels. I feel they are more important than the more costly reticle illumination devices now becoming popular. Maybe it will become The New Hotness for long range scopes. :cool: Eric B. [/QUOTE]
