[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 599576, member: 30902"] That is not what I was addressing. What I was addressing was the possibility that the verticle cross hair might be out of plumb with the scope. If the rifle is leveled with one level, and the verticle crosshair is aligned with a plumb line at the same time if you place yet another bubble level on top of the scope and it is off, then we have diagnosed the verticle crosshair problem. I wasn't speaking at all to a possibility that the horizontal and verticle crosshairs could be out of square. That's a totally separate issue. That can be easily diagnosed as well by following the same proceedure as outlined above with the addition of a level horizontal line perpendicular to the plumb line. If the rifle is level and top of scope is level and the horizontal crosshair does not align with the leveling line while the verticle line is aligned with the plum line, that problem is diagnosed as well. Rifle and scope both level then both cross hairs should align with the plumb and horizontal target lines. [/QUOTE]
