[QUOTE="Plowboy85, post: 1791108, member: 66137"] So I done this for the first time tonight and I didn’t bother to attempt to level out my action, when I got done with the scope it was perfectly aligned to the plumb bob and the bore was dead on but the was a noticeable can’t between the scope and gun when I stood back and looked then shoulderd the rifle. About that time my OCD kicked in and I measured all kinds of points including the dang integral recoil lug, bedding area and recoil lug groove depth. After that I started back over and decided to utilize the guns raceways and pic rail (they are true to one another), then I proceeded to get the bore and reticled aligned. After that learning experience it shoulders well and reticle looks and is level to me and the bore. Long story but yes get the gun level first or you will be really annoyed with your time spent lol.
