So I got one today and got it on the gun. I am still working on getting it level. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks for all the help.

Re: How to level a anti-cant device?
Set the rifle in a rest with the crosshairs lined up with a perfectly verticle object in the distance. A plumb-bob set up down range works well. Then you adjust your anti-cant device so that the bubble appears level to your eyes while in the firing position.

Another level set on top of your elevetion knob. Match up the bubbles.

One of the 2 reasons I like the anti-cant devices that go on the rail and not on the scope.
The other is that I can see it with my weak eye w/o getting up from behind the scope.

Re: How to level a anti-cant device?
Here's how I do it,
First, level the rifle (I lock it down with the Pod-Loc).
Second, level the scope in the rings.
Third, level the ACD with the scope.
Last, check reticle against a plumb line with bubbles level, then crank the erector all the way up and see if things are still plumb.
