I want to build a wagon/carriage box for my rifle. I have looked at boxes on line but the only question I have is the rifle plumb level in the box or do they slope down down some what at the muzzle? If so by how much? Thank you

I believe the slope down some to make it easier to set them in place. I use the airglides right now for mine and one thing they have I really like is the nylon velco straps that lock the rifle into the cushions solid. Im thinking of building a double rife version with Cherry wood and brass furniture. But 2 SHarps in one case is going to be Heavy Heavy Heavy. I like the looks of the wagon carriage type boxes also and the traditional look appeals also. I also have some extra time on my hands LOL.
