Older instruments (I like vintage gear) have their level vials affixed by screws to the telescope. I have found that using these two screws as a sight line, I can use that to find my target well enough to see it in the scope. So even if you don't have a sight, you can still improvise a means of doing so. of course, they also have four leveling screws so were a bit harder to true up...

this is what i have searched for in levelling thankyou sir...

Thank You Sir for this! Very well explained....I've been wrestling with how to measure up my yard with distances as well as elevations - enter the Stadia Lines and formula, which I didn't know about. I tested it out on a 45' distance this evening and was within 1/4" - simply amazing!
