[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1549390, member: 30902"] There are certainly more reliable tools which have magnets that lock the level into the right spot and hold it there while you make your adjustements to the scope. Just search for "scope leveling tools" at Brownell's or Midway. A level that stays locked exactly onto your feed rails is essential to the process. Even a level that is locked onto a mounted rail can be off slightly to the feed rails dependent upon the exactness of where the mounting holes are drilled. I've seen more than one receiver that was drilled slightly off enter requiring shimming and bedding of the rail. [/QUOTE]
