System for scope leveling
A system and method for scope leveling. The scope has a scope body. The scope body has a leveling indicator. In one example, the leveling indicator is an engraved line which extends longitudinally along the length of the scope. The scope is manipulated such that the leveling indicator is properly aligned relative to a mount. The system and method results in a level scope which reduces canted angles and increases accuracy.
1. A scope for leveling comprising:
a scope body connecting two lenses on opposing ends;
a leveling indicator located on said scope body;
wherein the leveling indicator does not comprise any moving parts
wherein said scope body is cylindrical; and
wherein said leveling indicator comprises a first horizontal line extending at least a portion of a length of said scope body and an unconnected second horizontal line extending at least a portion of a length;
a first mount comprising a first bottom half-ring, and a second mount comprising a second bottom half-ring;
wherein said first horizontal line aligns with said first bottom half-ring, and
wherein said second horizontal line aligns with said second bottom half-ring.
2. The scope of claim 1 wherein said leveling indicator is engraved on said scope body, and wherein said leveling indicator further comprises a logo.
3. The scope of claim 1 wherein said leveling indicator has a length of between about ¼ of an inch to about 1 inch.
4. The scope of claim 1 wherein said scope body is smooth.
5. The scope of claim 1 wherein said leveling indicator is printed on said scope body.
6. A system for leveling, said system comprising:
a scope comprising a scope body connecting two lenses on opposing ends;
a leveling indicator located on said scope body;
at least two mounts for coupling with said scope body, wherein a first mount comprises a first bottom half-ring and a second mount comprises a second bottom half-ring, wherein said first and second bottom half-rings are separated;
wherein said scope body is cylindrical;
wherein said leveling indicator extends horizontally along a length of said scope body;
wherein said leveling indicator aligns with each of first and second bottom half-rings on said mounts when said scope is level;
wherein said leveling indicator comprises a first horizontal line which aligns with said first bottom half-ring, and a second horizontal line which aligns with said second bottom half-ring, and wherein said first horizontal line and second horizontal line are separated, and wherein said leveling indicator comprises no moving parts.
7. The system of claim 6 wherein said first and second half-ring each comprises a semi-circular bottom ring.
8. The system of claim 7 further comprising a removable top ring.
9. The system of claim 6 wherein said mount comprises a level point.
10. The system of claim 6 wherein said scope body is smooth.
11. The system of claim 6 wherein said leveling indicator comprises at least two discrete points which are horizontally separated along said length of said body.
12. A method of leveling a scope, said method comprising:
a) obtaining a scope comprising a leveling indicator, wherein said leveling indicator does not comprise any moving parts, wherein said scope body is cylindrical; and wherein said leveling indicator extends horizontally along a length of said scope body, wherein said leveling indicator comprises a first horizontal line and a second horizontal line, and wherein said first and second horizontal lines are separated;
b) positioning said scope adjacent to a first and a second mount, wherein said first mount comprises a first bottom half-ring and wherein said second mount comprises a second bottom half-ring, wherein said first and second bottom half-rings are separated;
c) manipulating said scope to align said first horizontal line with said first bottom half-ring and said second horizontal line with said second bottom half-ring.
13. The method of claim 12 further comprising a removable top ring.
