Default muzzy rest problem?

I am having trouble with my fletchings hitting my rest. i am using blazer vanes and my bow is shooting 305 fps. the rest is comming up right before the bow breaks over so it does'nt make any since. my nock is about in the center of the burger button hole. would making the nocking point higherhelp the clearance?

What bow are you shooting?
Calling muzzy and asking for help has worked in the past for me , when I had similar problems years ago , they were friendly and helpfull , fixed my situation .

I just went through this problem with mine as well ,i ended up raising my rest and my nock point to rid the issue ,everything seem's fine now ,no contact and arrow's are flying true.my nock point was also set at the center of the of the holes on my riser, now it's near the top.

I had the same problem with mine and I took it to the local shop and he adjusted the rest some how to make it drop faster i guess. Something to look into
