    Default Leveling a reticle-using plumb bob

    May try this next scope mounting.

    "Start by hanging a piece of white poster board up with a plumb line hanging in front of it, the finer the plumb line the better.. Set the rifle in a cleaning rest or on bipods with the buttstock next to the plumb line but not touching it. Now use a level to get the rifle as level as possible. Now find the absolutely brightest light you can and shine it into the objective of the scope, focus the scope until you have a nice clear projected image on the poster board. Now you have a clear view of what adjustments you need to make and both hands free to make them. "

    It ain't what they call you, it's what you answer to.
