I shoot them out of my wheel bow. They fly like darts with no alighment issues. However they screw in is how they get shot. No issues what so ever. There again, with any broadhead built true, alignment shouldnt be an issue with a tuned bow, or in your case, properly spined shafts.
Like another poster, I shoot them to make sure they fly true with my field points, then touch them up with the Lansky, even straight out of the pack, nowhere near sharp as the disposable "razor blade" material heads.

I can't tell any difference shooting them aligned or not either.

I just had some carbon arrows re fletched with feathers to shoot out of my recurve. The guy at the trad store who I trust told me to go with 150 Magnus stingers and 150 gr field points (obviously) because the carbons were a smidge stiff with 125's. The Magnus broadheads shot exact to the field points. Nearly to the point of needing to re fletch an arrow or two. He has used the Magnus Stingers exclusively for a while now with his trad equipment and has had no issue what so ever.
Mine don't align either and shoot just fine.
Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.

I lined mine with the cock feather and they shoot great from the Longbow
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

I was thinking hard about getting Magnus. They look like great heads, but I choose something else and so far I am happy. I hope to arrow my first buck this year. Wish me luck and I will do the same.

I like the looks of the stingers as well. I ended up with the 150 buzz cuts. They have the bleeder blade and serrated edge. Sure look wicked and I'm anxious to try them out.

Mine don't align either and shoot just fine. 150 are fine but if you already have some 125,you can increase your brace height and the bow will usually shoot a slightly heavier spine better. It would seem counter intuitive as a longer power stroke should shoot a heavier spine better but it has more to do with the way the arrow flexes around the riser and a what point it leaves the string.

They were my absolute favorite heads in the past. Just went to 150's for the stiffer spined arrows. When I get a little ahead I'll buy some proper spined XX75's and use them again.
