Best way to level lot for pole barn

FWIW, Wal Mart had laser levels priced at $24.95 before christmas, and after christmas they went down to 14.95 and then to 10.95..........and now they are listred in the clearance sectin at $3.00 a piece. I picked up one for the hell of it, not expecting much, and its claim to be able to throw a beam 120 feet +........well I knew darn well it would not be able to be seen during daylight hours, but my intent was to take it apart to make a l;aser sight for my shotgun with it.......I was totally amazed when I was able to throw a beam over my 1 acre pond (200+ feet) in broad daylight...........I sighted it from my spillway to my pump box approx 110 feet just to check water height to bottom of box....Works fine....comes with 2 spirt levels in an extruded aluminum tube, with a lifetime warranty. I have since bought 6 more, and turned two into laser sights for my shotguns. OAL is 16 or 18 inches, lifetime warranty made by Johnson Tools in Tennesee, (but its actually made in China IIRC) Hard to beat for three bucks

hmmmm. Were you sighting through a scope?

I think there's a laser class issue here. In Oz, we are only allowed cl II lasers, for consumer stuff, and they are pretty weak. Less than

Even the pro ones suggest using a sensor for longer distances.

And great fun to illuminate someone's tail lights on the next block at night with one!!!

Well I my self do not really need a laser sign on a shotgun during daylight hours.....but at night or in low light conditions its hard to beat......just getting the red dot close is usually sufficient to get what your shooting at, and its invaluable for the typical nocturnal predators around here........oppossums, coons, coyote, etc etc.
