Re: Anti-Cant Bubble Level
I just got the B-Square model and mounted it to the rifle, I didn't want to remove the scope to mount it, and was able to mount without removing the scope. I have some questions;
1. The level makes very light contact with the scope body, is this going to cause an issue? When I say light, I mean that I could put the level against the rail and mount it without using any additional pressure, but I was aware that it was touching the scope.
2. Since I didn't remove the scope, I wasn't able to check to ensure that the base was level, and then install the b-square and check for squareness before mounting the scope. I used a level on the elevation turret of my Leup Mk4 to compare the level and they don't match up perfect, is it possible that the turret is slightly off?
3. Regardless of whether the level is perfect or not, even if it's off a bit, the fact that I at least have a method to ensure repeatable cant (assuming there were some), I would still be more consistent than if I had no level at all. Am I correct in this thinking? I'm going to see if I can rig up some sort of plumb line in the backyard, i'll have to wait until the wife gets home though, and then i'll have to admit that I bought some toys without consulting her.
I have the other model which is the scope ring type level that's going to mount on my .22. I don't have enough room on the scope to mount on my .308, coupe that with Warne rings which are taller on top (check out the design online and you'll know what I mean) which wouldn't allow me to see the level without raising my head up. It'll work great on the .22 I think, i'm going to mount it up later.
