I use the hole in the end cap and / or the laser method to collimate my newtonian. The first time was pretty hit and miss and took a while before I got it right. For me, a well collimated scope makes all the difference. With practice it will only take a minute to collimate your scope.
Read up on how to do it and give it a go. When you get used to looking through a well aligned setup you will develop a low tolerance to poor collimation.
