Adjust out for cold temps and in for hot temps. Adjust out for vertical stringing and adjust in for horizontal stringing. How much you adjust depends on the stiffness of your barrel and the weight of the tuner. Small adjustments are the order of the day, there is a tendency to over adjust thus passing the sweet spot and defeating the purpose of adjusting.

Re: Tuners
Just wondering, what do you do if it’s cold and you have horizontal stringing ?

Re: Tuners
Test it for yourself. It’s the name of the game knowing where your tuner needs to go when things go south. Sure you can listen to people’s experience like Keith had generously shared, but ain’t no harm in doing the testing so you trust your adjustments 100 percent. I’ve only ever had it happen once on a weird dead still morning and it was quite humid. Once the wind came in the gun hammered. This was a bit before people were playing with tuners, maybe a few just starting. If I had one on the gun it would have been a great exercise continuing the string and adjusting. Sometimes you have to take those opportunities.
