I had done the washer method quite a while ago - traded ST to a local guy - he gives me a call a week later stating the drop is having the same behavior. Take out the drop unit and the plastic ledge was shattered. I'm going to try a thicker shim that goes across the entire ledge so it doesn't have a chance to break again.

Quoted from TomGWI:

My drop target started acting up again yesterday. Turns out the black plastic shelf broke in half. $3 to order a new one so not bad but I believe the problem was I used too thick of washers on mine. Just thought I would let others know who have done the adjustment.

The guy that bought mine has broke the plastic shelf twice now. He had a metal one fabricated - don't know how it is working yet. 2nd time I put a thick fish paper behind it and it still broke.
