[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 2009230, member: 69192"] I use an EXD Engineerng Vertical Reticle Leveling Instrument for leveling my scopes with a piece of masking tape that is on the garage door about 50 feet away. Once the scope and bore are level I tape the rifle in a Tipton vise and then adjust the vertical reticle of the scope until it is level with the masking tape, then tighten the scope rings. I put the tape up with a level. I have a number of Ruger 77s with the integral scope bases (milled into the receiver), and for me if the scope is exchanged/switched between rifles the scope has to be leveled again each time.
