Hello, I've just fitted this mech to a new bike build. The B screw bracket is fouling on the mech itself in some gears towards the big/big end, even with the b screw tightened right up as shown in the photo. There is a slight gouge in the mech itself where it has made contact. The gears all work fine and I'm tempted to leave it but it's slightly annoying me. Anyone any ideas about this?

    Here's a photo of mine:

    There's a decent gap between the derailleur body and the metal tab for the B screw. Has your tab got bent while screwing the mech onto the hanger? It looks like the tab should be further down towards the tip of the hanger.

    Can you post a pic as above, from your description it's hard to picture what the issue is.

    I think this is what the OP intended:
