[QUOTE="aroshtr, post: 783608, member: 9176"] I prefer a scope mounted level over the rail mounts. The main reason for this is that once the level is set true to the travel of the scope (or reticle), then it is set for life. I can take the scope off and re-install and never have to re-level the scope. Also, with the level on the scope, it allows me to adjust the scope in the rings so the rifle "fits" me better. Depending on the stock and ring height I have seen several times where a very slight cant in the rifle will make the cheek weld easier to reproduce and feel better (you cant do this with a fixed rail mount). I think too many guys worry about having the rifle perfectly level, when all that really matters is the the scope travels (or reticle) true to the earth. Broz, I actually shoot my level in just like you with the plumb line. For us guys that dial, you can never trust that the reticle is 100% in line with the actual travel. Joel [/QUOTE]
