The six-o'clock hold is for extreme precision shooting. When the sight stands out in contrast to the background of the target you can see precisely the position of the sight with respect to the point of aim. If you place the sight on the black of the bullseye, the contrast is lost and it is more difficult to achieve this precision. I am no longer capable of that kind of shooting so I just point it at what I want to hit and hope for the best!
