(strike that. see below) The symbol in the Point Style has "limits" like an invisible force field around it. The perimeter of this "limit" is where the 9 attachment points are located (Middle Right, Top Right, etc.). When in a Dragged State the attachment point for the leader is aligned toward the exact insertion point but trimmed back to the "limit" of the Marker assigned in the Point Style. There is a Border and Leader Gap setting in the Point Label Style > Dragged State Tab but that only increases the gap between the landing line of the leader and the text. (Revised Statement) Thanks to Nick at my Civil 3D Workshop yesterday. The leader has 2 position choices controlled by 1 setting in the Point Style. On the Summary Tab > Marker (Property) > Leader stops at marker. Set to No and the arrowhead goes directly to the insertion point. Set to Yes (default setting) and the leader stops at the perimeter of the symbol. Offset parameters for the arrowhead do not exist.

It sounds like its set to 0 in the drawing. You may also want to check what FIELDEVAL is set to. It sounds like its set to 0 in the drawing.
