I understand that this is a pretty nice scope, my question is - is there room to mount the scope level and angle? even if you had the horus asli, i would think the focus would be in the way because it doesn't look like there's enough room behind the knobs for another ring. Anyone else see this issue?

Not on the scope in the rear. Unless you have some extremly narrow rings for level and scope. Anyways you might wan't to put level in front since it will be easier to read (atleast i like it that way since i shoot with both eyes open).

But if you put it in the front... wouldn't the knobs/turrets get in the way of either of them? I would think you couldn't see them - unless you put them further up front... i suppose that would work for the cosine/angle but for the level???

I'll take a look at the USO level... i always thought that you wanted the level and angle on the scope rather than the rail?

-- wow those are pretty nice - my horus vision one cost me $115 plus $20 for the 30mm ring. The USO that mounts to the rail with the swivel is $71 - plus - looks like i'll have to find a angle someday - maybe that's not as needed as the anticant.
Thanks
