Mine stays at 4 o'clock. I have found it to be the most comfortable position for me.

About 4:30-5:00. Seems to be my sweet spot.

Mostly tucked in my pants. I've found wearing it in a shirt-pocket, sock, or on a chain around my neck uncomfortable.
Oh, you mean where on a belt... I'm right-handed, so also between 3 and 4 o'clock depending where my belt loops sit.

Everywhere I go (rimshot). Okay, for me, I usually wear about 9:00 (I'm a lefty) but the key is, wherever is comfortable and prints the least on you. I'm a bit overweight, I suspect the VM 2 will move rearward towards 8:00 if I lose the spare tire.

Hmmmm...so almost everybody wears to the rear as opposed to in the front? Interesting!!!

3 to 3:30 for me works like a charm.

3:00 - 3:15
This is opinion as I have no experience with IWB.
Wear it where comfortable and it conceals well. If possible wear it close to your strong hand unless you are more comfortable with a cross draw.
And wear it in a manner which conceals well.
I wear at around 4:00. I've never tried appendix carry--too old and set in my ways.

I use the same kind of holster (clip) at between 3:00 and 3:30.

3:30 - 4:00 has worked best. 2:00 with the spare tire is uncomfortable!

I am glad I asked....I have always worn it in front, off to the side...maybe 2:00

Generally, just behind the side of the hip. Better comfort, and the butt end of the gun rides closer to the body.
If IWB with a single snap loop, it tends to be 7:30 (lefty). If a wider IWB holster with double snap loops, it tends to be 8:00 or 8:30. Allows the gun to ride more tightly against the body.
If OWB (Fist #18 paddle, Galco Yaqui paddle, not a pancake), I tend to have it at 9 o'clock.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
