Oops, must have missed that 😳 . Not totally my fault, for some reason a lot of links are almost impossible for me to see unless I mouse over them. My posted links don’t seem to do that, how come so many others do? Later.

However yes there is alot of useful stuff to read on that sight.

LOL

Check out this page: http://www.arld1.com/ Toward the bottom there are a couple of different demos that deal with scope cant. It’s kind of amazing that a small change can make a big difference in POI. Lots of other good info here, too. Later.

See )

The higher your scope mounts, the bigger the difference. Yes it really helps, especially with our guns and the high mounts we are forced to use.

When you are sighting on a target the scope reticle will always be centered on the target. If you lean the gun to the side the reticle remains on target but the barrel has now moved to the side. The farther away the bore is from the center of the reticle the more pronounced the movement will be. So if you have a high mount like we do just a little cant to the side can move your pellet a half inch or more to the side. THEN, when you figure in the fact that the pellet is arcing to the target it makes things even worse.

Im terrible at trying to convey my point through text. I hope you get my jist, if not someone will splain it better Im sure.

Do these levels really help you shoot more accurately? Have you taken it off after having one for a while, and see if it made a difference (for the worse)?

I have one as well, so far it’s working ok.

Doesnt appear to leak, but the bubble definitely is twice the size it was when new.

It’s most likely filled with ethyl alcohol (low freezing point -173F) and
a very small leak would just evaporate.

Piece of crap……. crap…. i was going to get one tomorrow… now im torn. Any others with experience with this specific model/

I have got one. I used it to do some 120 yard shots, and for whatever reason it made my POI move to the left about 6 inches. I took it off and all was good. You can have it for $15 if you want.

Have anyone tried this one from pyramid air ?

I am considering buying such device but now I am wondering which one 🙂

I have that piece of crap.

It mounted level, but over time the bubble inside is growing larger and now it fills the entire window. Doesnt appear to leak, but the bubble definitely is twice the size it was when new.

Im gonna make my own soon.

All you have to do to check it is set a another level on the flat top of the frame and make sure they match.
