Default great groups but?

i have a patriot 03 at 60 # shooting a beeman 400ics with vanes and 125 grain head at 265fps 28 inches long weight 425 grains draw 30 inches.also a pro 40 04 at 64#and 30 inch draw shooting 251fps. both bows are set up with a muzzy zero effect. they both shoot a 3 inch low paper tear thats the nock gos threw the paper 3 inches low.field points and muzzy 125 grain heads.i can't get flecthing clearance with my rest without being nock high on the string.it just clears the rest on both bows no flecth contact.my field points are 6 inches high compared to the muzzys same weight arrows.but with the muzzy point it makes the arrows longer overall.i have both bows setup with a 20 30 and 40 yard pins. when i shoot the field points with this pins it becomes 30 40 and 50 yards.the groups are great but point of impact is 6 to 8 inches off between the field points and muzzys.do i just have to suck up and live with this or is there a cure thankx.

I have never heard any better answer then "it must be out of tune" Well I have to adjust my sights twice a year going from field tips to broadheads then back again when season is over.

So I am sorry that I dont have any tech info for ya. But just letting you know that you not alone

What vane/feather is making the contact?

Have you tried cock vane up or out?

I have the MZE on my 03 Pat Dually and 04 Black Knight and dont have a problem with contact but I am shooting cock vane up.

Can you post pics or email me some pics of your set ups?

i would say the problem is in the rest. dose not matter cock vane up or down they still hit . unless i set up very high on the string nock. which gives me the 3 inch low paper tear. like i said do i have to just suck up and live with it or is there a cure .by the way i can get perfect bullet holes set with a lower nock point but then it eats up my vanes[:@][:@][:@]
