Re: Extra Limb Set for the 380 Blackout

I see nothing wrong with wanting to buy extra parts for anything you have. Stuff happens and sometimes you can't or Don't want to wait for parts. I had a Browning bow years ago that after years of use/abuse had a limb fail . Browning refused to sell me limbs unless they installed them and the cost w...

Re: Anyone buy a 380 and wish they had the 355? or the oppos

"same limbs different power strokes on the matrix lineup." I Read the 380 has 260 limbs and the 405 has 290 an 1/4" longer stroke to give you 25 more fps either way the only change would be if something broke or was damaged .

Re: Anyone buy a 380 and wish they had the 355? or the oppos

I have a 380 and it shoots great .I really don't see me getting a smaller bow or needing a bigger one. If anything ever happened to my limbs I would replace them with the ones from a 405 just because. I like a bow that shoots as flat as possible. Get a C2 Crank and you can shoot till you are too old...

Re: Rangefinder Dilema

For Bow range most will work. The Bushnell line works for me. I range stuff around me in good light then I do not have to fumble with a range finder when Game shows up. I have found like scopes the basic models work best the Gimmick angle stuff is not for me.(Old school Mil-Dot on my Rifles) I like ...

Re: Triggertech's newest offering

The way I understand it is a single stage trigger will fit any Excalibur model including the Matrix and the 2 stage has 2 models Matrix and all the rest. Is this correct? Also the trigger levers are sold separate or are they included?

Re: Retired the equinox

Buy a 380 and a C2. :D My 9 yr. old cocks it fine. I would like to see just how big the Matrix will go so my son can have the 380 and I can play with the next monster. I like as much power as I can get. The thrill of riding the lightning is what its all about or better yet controlling the lightning....

Re: Wrapping foot stirrup with what? V

I just used 3M linerless rubber splicing tape 130C on my 380 .I had rubber hose zip tied to it but the splicing tape is better. The way I did mine is to just wrap the sides and leave the front uncovered .When you cock the bow the front has your foot on one side and the ground on the other if you sho...

Re: ? About Harvests at Food Plots.

Do to Coyotes I refuse to gut in the field . Deer could care less about blood and often come to check it out . Best to drag you kill out a.s.a.p by 4 wheeler or tractor if possible as they are less bothered then if you walk around and coyotes and hogs are drawn to downed animals. We skin with out gu...
