Anyone have any tips for mounting a scope? I've tried and tried and tried some more and I can not get the crosshairs level. I've tried this on two rifles and both have this problem. One has the crappy weaver rings that only tighten down on one side and it seems to twist the scope. The other one has regular Weaver rings that tighten on both sides. I will put it so it looks straight with me holding it up or resting on sand bags and tighten it down. Then I will notice later it's not straight looking so try again. It seems like I must move the gun slightly to make them look straight before tightening as once I get them tightened they always don't look straight. I've tried putting them in my vise thing I use when cleaning them but it's hard to get the gun level in that too. I asked a friend that does a lot of shooting if he had any tips and he said he has the same problem on several of his rifles.
So does anyone have any tips on here on how to avoid this?
