One thing that hasn't been mentioned...maybe it's too obvious to bear repeating, but...
A perfectly plumb/level reticle is only good if, when you are in shooting position, the rifle is held with the reticle plumb and level. If it's canted a little bit, you've wasted your time. Conversely, if the reticle is a little crooked sitting in your vise, but your preferred shooting position accounts for it, then all well and good. The only way it will work as advertised is if you ensure the reticle is plumb/level when you pull the trigger.
