Excalibur Crossbow Forum

So in following your story and being very new to Crossbows, how did you dry fire? My guess is you went to shoot at the target with no bolt?

welp, I bought one. The nightmare 335 package for 800.00 on ebay. My Dad and I figure I'll be sharing the blind with him when he goes so I can pull it back if he needs it and if he really loves it we can get the crank. He may be able to "load" it himself either way. After trying some compo...
