I usually buy a one piece scope ring mount. Have several Alphamount s from Near Manufacturing. Have placed busines cards between scope turrent housing and mount (or rail) so it is tight when scope rings are torqued. Torque screws with light settings, 5 in #.
1) Ring 1 - Do one screw on side close to you, then go to opposite side.
2) Ring 2 Do the opposite side, then on the start side.
Increase torque by 5 in #.
3) Ring 2, then torque on start side, side to self, then opposite side
4) Ring 1, Do the opposite side, then on the start side
Increase to 15 in # Repeat step 1 and 2
Increase to 20 In # Repeat step 3 and 4
Thus self leveling. Of course after torqueing all screws, remove cards
