Forgive me if there is a thread on this already, but what is the easiest way to get the crosshjairs of your scope perfectly level? It takes me forever to get this done. Any help is greatly appreciated.

If you do use the plumb line, you do have to make sure that the rifle is completely level and not canted with some kind of bubble level. I use a small pen like bubble level for that, then the plumb line can be used with confidence. The feeler gage is the best way and most user friendly.

I use the Starret pocket level #135A across the optical mount and then use a plumb line that I painted flourescent orange. Works excellently for me.
