Scope leveling, you're doing it wrong? (part 4) (last one, I promise...maybe)

- In this video we revisit my preferred method for checking the scope with some tweaks based on your input.
Was the flashlight also leveled? Would that affect the projected reticle from the leveled scope?
The flashlight doesn’t need to be level for this. While moving the light will shift the crosshairs, it will not rotate the projected image.
Please continue the Optical Dissertations... People have a Very poor understanding of Scope mechanics, mounting etc... There's just not a Lot of detailed or "Well Spoken" information out there for Springer enthusiasts... I read way too many scope complaints from Newbs that are by all accounts "Creating" their own problems with poor choices in optics and mounts, and improperly mounting their scopes from the git go. 🤦🏼♂️
Mostly poor ring locations to accommodate the wrong scope, over tightening the rings and binding the internals only to blame it on the scope. 🤷🏼♂️

How is the mirror part working 🤔
_This is some very in dept leveling! Haha I am taking notes_
Besides having to sneak off with my wife's mirror and then seeing my own reflection, it worked rather well.
I set it up at 10 yards, aimed the rifle at it while in a vice, and verified that the reticle aligned with the barrel.
@@Guru1ofatl So basically you look at yourself in the mirror but thru the scope 😁?
_You will shoot your eye out._
@@LowkeyAirgunner Exactly, you're looking at yourself looking through the scope.
You do have to be careful though, I hear a broken mirror is 7 years bad luck 😳
@@Guru1ofatl Shot out the Kitchen window once. The Wife WAS Not Impressed ! 😬
@@marcmyers1465 The next time the wife is less than thrilled with me for cleaning something other than dishes in her sink, I'll be showing her your comment.
Thanks in advance 😂
Well Done... 😉👍
Thanks Marc 🙂
@@Guru1ofatl Leveling "WILL work more often than not"
I have gone to some pretty extreme lengths to confirm scope and bore. In most cases, "Yes" simply leveling off the top turret will get you 95-97% there, and for shooting out to 55 yards, is certainly more than adequate. 🤷🏼♂️
Honestly 2° to 3° deviation in the reticles plumb is an extreme production aberration that should be returned without question.
The advantage of a good optical boresighter is that you can confirm plumb and square from multiple 90° points.
It's unreasonable for any sport optic manufacturer to expect the average shooter to invest in exotic calibration tooling. That's money that could be better spent on "Their" scopes ! 😉👍
Buy quality glass you can enthusiastically believe in, and hold their feet to the fire if you have to. Generally a companies warranty is the best indication of bragging rights. They ought to know their product better than anyone. 😉
@@marcmyers1465 The testing I've done as part of this series has been eye opening. While some of what I've been testing appears to have been overkill, I believe I have arrived at a process will work for most and doesn't require any major expenses.
With so many "big name" manufacturers offering Chinese scopes at prices above $500, having a reliable way to verify their tolerances seems prudent.
As always, thanks for sharing your input. 🙂
@@Guru1ofatl Same here, Russ. I simply want to know the easiest, most direct way for the average Airgunner sitting at home. I am the blind master of Nit Picking, but I'm an Engineer with an entire materials laboratory, a plethora of reference equipment, and it's my job to analyze these things for everyone else. I personally just like Airgunning. 🤷🏼♂️
As you said. "It has been Eye Opening" but you, Sir are an exceptional teacher ! 😉👍
@@marcmyers1465 I'm rarely happy accepting established practices as being 100% and would much rather poke things with a stick in order to understand the inner workings. I often find that the established practices are valid but end up with a better understanding and appreciation.
Either way, it's fun and keeps me out of trouble (kinda).
