Excalibur Crossbow Forum

I would like to know why you mess a pretty bow like that..

Ok say I buy the BEA's as Lake shooter said they only come in 20 or 22 inch shafts. But the ad said they come in 18" which is wrong. http://www.amazon.com/Black-Eagle-Zombie-Crossbow-Fletched/dp/B00K3Y8TS8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1424540645&sr=8-2&keywords=Black+Eagle+crossbow+bolts ...

Ok I am stupid here. WHat are BEA?

Its never funny till hind side kicks in.

So what to do... I am in the process of ordering everything including bolts. I was going to order the Diablo's even thou they more expensive than some others. I just dont want to regret doing so if I can better accuracy from something else.

Why are people ditching the Diablo bolts? For firebolts or zombies. Are they really that bad.

Interesting post!!! Sorry about your hunting buds that pass away.

On a good note it was very interesting to see the original Ecalibur's, never saw them before now. You have lots of good memories. I am glad you shared them with us. I hope to make a few myself.

Just my luck the CO would come along and want to know what I'm doing with the xbow when I can't shoot any fish with it. lol Sure glad I live in Ohio, we always been crossbow friendly,,, I don't think we were ever restricted weapon wise from using a crossbow,,,, maybe waterfowl, Yes we where. Two or...

Too bad they dont sell the matrix 308 xtra for the same price.

Welcome to the forum!! I am new too, I am waiting on income tax so I can get my bow. I have chosen the matrix 380 mainly for deer hunting. I think that you and I have chosen the right bow for the job. The main reason I chose this company was the ease of maintenance and being able to change the strin...

Thanks Big D we could use the prayers.


I can say for sure if mech open early or not but youtube is a wild place. Most are warning about high power xbow causing the opening of them. Is this old info and I shouldnt worry about them. If so let me know.

taz3 I seen that mod you did. Great job by the way. Since I work in a metal shop this wont be very hard for me to do. I will consider it closely. Big D Interesting Reads!! I dont like what I hear about most of the mech. broadheads, opening early. Thats why I have chossen Grim Reapers for deer(spring...

Thank for your info..Yea I am pretty stuck on the 380.

way123hockey wrote:I have a 355 and a 20" arrow is about 1/4" shy of clearing the stirrup. The 380 has about 1" more power stroke so you are looking at 21-1/2" to 22" arrow. Maybe someone with a 380 will chime in.

That would be nice.

I believe your going to need a longer arrow.........one long enough to extend that broadhead past the stirrup...........18 inches won't cut it on a 380. I don't have a 380 to measure but somebody will come up with the measurement from the back of the trigger to the end of the stirrup, in order for ...
