Haven't been shooting this release long but I like the feel and the "smallness". Anyway, never really paid attention to it before but this release does not close to the extent that the jaw is touching the other side, there is about 1/16" of an inch(maybe slightly less) when closed. What concerns me is using it with my new loop. I've shot it but it makes me nervous as it seems perhaps the loop could be pinching within that gap slightly causing premature wear on the string loop. My Carter Lockjaw release closed tight(as in no gap), won't work with a loop though....its basically a shoot-off-the-string release due to its wide jaw.

Question........do all Scott releases have this tiny gap or is something not quite right with the tolerance of mine? I see no adjustment for this........only for amount of pressure and length of barrel .
