Meaning about every 1 inch the "level" changes.

I have three 15-22s and I have confirmed this is the case on all of them. Looks like a quality control issue during manufacturing.
All these weapons are new never fired.
I would suggest that all three rifles being off simply mean that they are "within tolerances" and not a QC issue. They probably came from the same mold.
