I had a VC200L and found that a laser collimator was no good really due to the optics in the draw tube. I don't know how many had the scope before me but I suspect quite a few as when the secondary was inspected there were various different alignment marks all around it. I then used the written method by Vixen to do the whole thing by eye. Followed it exactly and my collimation was then quite good but still slightly triangular stars. I then used Al's collimation aid on a bright star to do the final collimation.
Result: Perfectly round stars to the edge native or with the focal reducer. But like an idiot sold it which I regret to this day and may get another.
