Anti-Cant - Scope, Rail, or Both Mounts?
« on: November 02, 2013, 10:08:24 AM »
I want to get an anti-cant bubble for my rifle. Which one do you like better, scope or rail mounted? Both?

I have a rail mounted level on my 308 but would put a scope mounted on my hammer.  It would really depend on how the scope reticle was leveled. If the rail is flat then the rail mounted would be fine. If the scope was leveled off the rifle, I would go with a scope mounted.

Once the optic is installed, I personally have no need for a mechanical level on the rifle.  It is amazing how well the human eye and brain can detect cant.

I heard it does make a difference when you shoot over 1000yrds.

It makes a difference at any distance on a target equal size or smaller to your elevation adjustment.

The human brain is incredible at making things appear to happen when they aren't.


There was supposed to be a picture but it didn't show up.
