I use the TRU-Ball Speed Nock. I hated adding the extra weight but it's really not that bad and I do get perfect peep alignment everytime.

I had a problem w/ peep alignment when I had a sub par string on my bow... If you have a pretty good string you should not have that big of a problem if you bow tech ties your loop in right....

A good loop is important, learn how to tie your own and it'll be done right. Follow this tutorial from greg/mo, it's really helpful. It's a sticky on the technical forum. And make sure that you get good loop material like theBCY from redhdcharm, don't ever use the stuff from places like Walmart.

Make sure your loop is TIGHT. REALLY TIGHT.

Rotate it until it's aligned, i.e. you draw and the peep is where you want it. Then let down and put a dab of clear cement on the knots where they meet the string, and let the bow sit for a day.

This is what I do to stop the problem every time I tie on a new loop.
