    I'm a real newbie when it comes to stringing... I use the Eagnas Hawk 16 and it kind of does the job...

    I have 2 problems:

    1) My problem is that my strings moves around ALOT after stringing
    2) When I set my drop weight to 25lbs... It does NOT feel like 25lbs after....

    I use fly clamps provided with my Hawk 16 and I clamp the string inside the frame as close to the frame as possible... I try to stretch the string out a little by leaving the string attached to the tensioner for about 30 seconds...

    Any recommendations?

    First check the CROSS weaving of all the crosses specifically where frequent string movement occurs. You might have done wrong weaving.

    strings moves more right after stringing. they will settle down after a session or two.

    you might want to calibrate your machine with a fishing scale.
