[QUOTE="WildWillie, post: 552734, member: 29658"] Jon - Thanks for the tips on both issues. There does not seem to be any room for that serving to move inside the D-Loop, but I will take your advice and lock it in place. I've checked and double checked all the mounting screws on the scope and nothing is loose there. Adding a cheek piece seems like a sound solution. I've wanted to change the back end for a while now as I cannot get a natural/comfortable mount with the scope sitting higher on the HHA. Also it seems I've been able to remove the string jump by pushing the cranking string to the right when I 1st start cranking (About the 1st 3 inches). That seems to get the string to not bunch up on the left side of the spool and cause the jump. After about 60 shots yesterday I only had the string jump when I did not apply right pressure OR held right pressure too long. Another thing that causes that string to jump is if you take the upper off and look at the gears, the small gear (The one on the crank shaft) has a small pin that goes through it and a small set screw to hold it in place. Twice I've found that pin sticking out on one side or another about 1/8" and the set screw loose. When that happens it tends to prevent the string from distributing over the spool equally. If it happens again I'm gonna lock tight the screw. WildWillie [/QUOTE]
