[QUOTE="jlanecr500, post: 5810960, member: 16430"] I also use the wheeler. Simple and effective. Another important aspect of scope mounting is scope cant. I use the leveling tool below. It has 2 v blocks that sit on the barrel and scope. When it's bubble shows level, the scope is directly above the barrel. 25 yards out you drop a plumb Bob with bright colored string. With the tool showing level, rotate the scope until the crosshairs are parallel with the plumb Bob string. This guarantees the scope is directly over the barrel and the crosshairs are level at the same time. Just install a scope mounted level and you'll always have confirmation before the shot. This is very important as shot distances get longer [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.brownells.com/optics/rings-mounts/scope-mounting-tools/vertical-reticle-instrument/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
