That said, I can see the plumb line being most accurate....except, how do you align the rifle level?
Using a plumb-line has worked for thousands of years and as well as in today's construction projects. I once checked one of my shop walls and found it, slightly out of plumb. Sure don't need to use my neighbor's house. …..

I level the vertical reticle to the leveled rifle barrel and not to the caps, turrets or any other part of the scope. Each rifle calls for it's own set-up but basically the same process. …..

A properly installed base, is an extension of the barrel. If the barrel has flats, I use those, if not, I use the flats of the base where I mount my level. I only need or use "one" small level. ….

Be Safe !!!
