Factory Centershot = bad paper tear *---<
On two of my bows, I am getting a nock right tear on the paper test while the rest is set in the recommended spot. *-----<
My question is this: I think my form is pretty solid, should I try different spined arrow? I hate to move the rest too far to the left.

You are getting the tear because everyone torques the bow to some degree. Right handed shooters typically need the rest left of center and left handed shooters need the rest right of center.

It could be torque, but there are other possibilities. When you say right tear, I am assuming that you mean that the tip is to the left and the fletching is to the right. Also you should be shooting about 5-6 feet from the paper.
First check for clearence problems.I would suggest using lip stick on the fletch or spray area with foot powder. Lip stick is cleaner.
If not that or torque, then you are shooting too stiff of an arrow. Here are some things you can do:
1. Increase tip wieght. (25 grain increments)
2. Increase length of the arrow shaft.
3. Increasepoundage on your bow.
4. Use arrow with less spine.
BTW: I don't like going very far from center shot if I am moving the rest about 1/16 either way is about it. In your case, you may have to move it left if that is something you want to do.

I believe so on this model bow , whos centershot is 3/8s of an inch outside of the center of the grip
