I hang my head in shame at the hours I put into getting the scope straight in those bastards - ended up with the stock sitting on a spirit level in the gun vise and a coloured Plumb line hanging down a deer post that I could get the vertical line of the reticle parallel with.

if you want to get your scope verticle put it on the lowest mag setting and look through it at a mirror then just get the verticle post to run through the center of the barrel
