Hey everyone,
I recently bought a Remington 700 sps tactical.I soon after purchased a larue tactical base, Burris xtreme tactical rings, and a swfa 10x scope. While leveling the scope I realized the base is very slightly canted, and not completely level to the receiver. I measure how level the receiver is by removing the bolt, and placing a level tube through the bolt cutout, resting it right before the roof of the receiver. (Pictures below) So my question is, do I level my scope to the receiver? Or the base? And is it normal for a base to be slightly off? Thanks alot, Evan
