S5's String gap

Placed new S5 on my Equinox today and had to change my brace height to get a gap between string and S5 cushion. Sighted in afterwards very slight adjustment to bring back in align, but the S5 seems to be longer than the STS's that I had on the bow is this usual :?: Did I not install S5 properly?

Question

Noticed that plastic was stick-out in channel at exit end. Can I just trim this off or do I need to loosen everything and readjust plastic back into place? Plastic is hitting vanes can see where it has been rubbed by vanes.

Thanks Pydpiper

First, pay no attention to the numbers on the scope, they are there for reference, not by any means accurate. 1st, level the scope properly, that is very important for shots beyond 20 yards. Take a shot at the center of the target at 10 yards, if it is within 6 inches of where you aimed move back t...

I had the same problem found there was still some glue inside shaft. I use a long threaded screw as a file to smooth inside shaft. This took very little pressure.
