Default RAOBF off by few degrees?

So im having a issue with my RAOBF dial. Seems that my tic marks are off by alot. As seen here in this photo
Now i know your gonna say its cause i didnt have the water line lined up with my scope, but what im showing here is that in order to get what Travelly got in the RAOBF tutorial which is what Stoain got when i watched his video i have to place my horizontal line where it is. I tried this with both manos scopes patch 16x9 and the current scope i have now with 16x9...i run in 1440x900 res. So i figured i would try my scope out by itself and take the range, using the staidameter, and that worked just right. it wasnt off at all...i checked this by drawing a ruler. So is there a way i can make my RAOBF calibrated correctly, otherwise i wont be able to use it like i was hopeing to.

you use the rong patch scope ... your resolution is not 16x9... it is 8x5... so install manos scope patch 8x5
