Default Magnus Stinger Alignment

I cant get these things to shoot that tight. No I dont shoot the same dot, but they seem sparatic. Just out of curiosity I tried a 3 blade to see if they shot OK....they did. Just cant seem to find the right alignment or something that these things want. Bow is in tune according to center shot and paper test. How do you guys align your 2 bladers?

for those would be repliers...i found the problem.....for some reason, and it was the last thing i noticed bc ive never had the problem before because i dont grip the bow, i was twisting the bow at full draw and making the arrows go around the cables.[]

huh?[&:]
So you were getting fletching contact?
Did you spin test your arrows with the heads screwed in?

arrows spin tested fine.
fletch (blazers) were NOT hitting when on the rest withOUT the bow being draw
my centershot was fine

Couldnt figure out what was happening...

I noticed at fulldraw, if shooting a target at 12:00....my pins started looking a little crooked....looked at the way I was gripping the bow, and I shouldnt say grip, because I dont really grip per say, rather just rest it between my thumb and index finger...but the way I was resting the grip of the bow between my fingers was causing the bow to torque so to speak and the arrow was slapping the cables...the arrow was in a bind so to speak, even though the bow was in tune.

I have no idea why I am doing that. It feels like the way Ive shot the past uptenth years, shooting paper in competitions and hunting? Not sure what exactly has changed in the way I grip it to cause it to do that, but Im having to conciously make the way I grip it is leaving everything square. Very simple to show whats wrong, but hard to explain with words lol

You are canting your bow all in a sudden it sounds like. You might try adding a sight with a level.
