As you know, full rollers track between the fingers and thumb.  Their layouts are designed to locate the track's bowtie so the flare moves away from the gripping holes instead of into them.  Most options on these layouts involve changing the pin to PAP distance from the "standard" 3 3/8".  Check the drill sheets on various manufacturers websites for other options.  The Lanemasters site has several options for full rollers, the link is below.  --  JohnP

What JohnP says is correct in regards to managing the flare on a full roller.

 

The only other layout would be the one that has the pin laid out behind the PAP on the negative.

 

The layout places the pin at 1:30 from the center of the grip at 10 1/8" with the CG on the line from the center of the grip to the PAP. Place the weight hole at 6 3/4" from the center of the grip on the same line.

In the Specialty section, halfway down the page, are alternate full roller layouts, in case you haven't seen them.
