We all want our cross hairs (reticles) to be perfectly perpendicular and horizontal when mounting our rifle scopes. When putting a new scope on I usually set up a level some distance away, and using bidpods on my rife, try to align the up-down cross hair with the level. I use the level to make sure that the surface that the rifle is placed on is as horizontal as possible.
Do you have a better method that you can recommend?
A friend of mine has a little "level" that he places on the little flat surface found on the adjusting knob of the scope, but that is contingent upon keep the rifle on a horizontal plane as well.
Does it really matter that much for accuracy if the reticles are set in a X fashion instead of a +?
