[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1787967, member: 313"] My observation (and I'm not a gunsmith): I have used most of the various tools and methods discussed above. The one thing that I learned is that if you compare results using the different tools and methods (on the same rifle) you will find those results to vary. What makes using the raceway to indicate when the rifle is plumb a good idea? Why would putting a level across a flat spot on the action be better? Why is using the scope base as a point of reference the best method? How do we know the bubbles in these inexpensive tools are accurate enough? Why does the reticle look canted after you do everything possible, with every available gadget, to get things perfectly aligned? Just sayin' [/QUOTE]
