Shot it outside today for first time. Ripping fletch at 50 yards. Deadly!
How is you trigger? How would you describe the trigger in respect to creep, travel and how it breaks?

Re: FIBERBOARD SHEATHING TARGETS

I still think the 'Garbage Can' full of rags has been my best home made archery target. It's been sitting outside for almost 3 years now. If Arrows start getting close to flights in depth, pick Can up swish the Can in a circular motion to redistribute rags. When your done shooting stand it up and p...

Re: Small game/blunt tips for varmints?

Wanted to post up here with an update. Put a bearpaw to use earlier tonight, for a raccoon in the barn, hanging out near the chickens. These crossbows are incredible, put one between the eyes and that was that. It's great I don't have to wake up the neighbors with a .22. http://www.lancasterarchery...

Re: Naming of A Crossbow?

This is the only one I ever named, it was just a fun project Blackout 405 I built from assorted parts and it shot great right away, so I named it "The Punisher" (the decal fit well) (AND, oddly enough I just noticed that this is my 405th post!! Weird coincidence when talking about my 405!...

I bought a micro 355 last fall and put it through a chrono over the winter. I got 350 FPS with a quill @ 400 gr. And 366 with 100 gr tip(350).
Awesome, how are you liking it?

Re: Clunking Noise While loading Micro 355/C2 Crank

What you are hearing is the string leveling out on the spool . In other words it is loading up on one side to a point then it slides over there was a question regarding this a while ago the noise does not scare anything as it does not last that long and it is normal . My charger does that I even cr...

Re: Clunking Noise While loading Micro 355/C2 Crank

That is the string on your C2 jumping off of the 2nd wrap on the spool. It is quite common and will not cause a problem. You can wax the crank string and it may help or you can shorten the crank string an inch or so and that may help. Most likely it will stop on its own after some use. Great, thank...

My Micro 335 does the same thing with the charger crank.

Everything is tight as well. I just ignore it.. Lol
Great, thank you. After I posted I searched the forms and saw several posts mentioning the string on the crank doing this.p

Clunking Noise While loading Micro 355/C2 Crank

Please watch this YouTube video. I keep getting a clunking noise while loading my Bow. The noise is quite loud and I can feel it in the bow. I checked to see if something was loose, every thing seems tight. Some time it happens when the string is 2-3 inches away from the Anti-dry fire. Sometimes it ...

Naming of A Crossbow?

OK, I see many folks naming their crossbows. Why? Is this some unwritten law or practice from the past? Am I going to H3!! for not naming my Excalibur?

Re: Boltcutter B.A.T vs. regular Boltcutter broadheads

Being a newbie with my first Excalibur I have only fired my field points about 20 times. I purchased the B.A.T. Broadheads. They were the same price at Cabela’s.ca. Next time maybe I’ll just get the regular Boltcutters. Oh so much to learn for a very soon to be 62 year old man!

Media Support Section

Hello, on this web page there is a section called Media Support. I tired to enter it but require a password. I was hoping this section would have how to videos, like how to wax a string or sighting in video and maybe general maintenance things.
Is this section not for the general public?
