[QUOTE="gunner69, post: 844293, member: 35270"] I cannot for the life of me understand this. Please ellaborate. To me the bore being round cannot be canted without a reference - ie scope crosshairs. Any side of the bore could be any position. If the action is proven level (the manner of doing so can be debated) and then the scope is then alligned on the action using gravity (ie a plumb line) against which the bullet will travel till impact then you can be sure you are propertly alligned. Any device that is unable to prove perfectly level perpendicular mounting postion to the crosshairs is only solving half of the problem. First perfectly level action (assuming barrel is installed straight) and second scope plumbed against gravity upon perfectly level action. [/QUOTE]
