Excalibur Crossbow Forum

I agree with Janesy I believe the half moon nocks would lead to more arrow wear. When I shot Barnett bows which use half moon nocks my arrows and nocks would develop grooves that got deeper with use. Not a good thing for accuracy.

How about an array of color options for the riser, rail, stock and limbs. Then you can build one just the way you want..
Different shades of brown , green, gray , tan , etc, to mix or match.

I would like to see a wood stock designed for hunting for both Micro and Matrix bows (not a target style like Y25.)

I would like to see a lighter bow (carbon or titanium parts) an arrow brush, rubberized stock with a cheekpiece actually high enough for scope use. New bows should come with a rope cocker and a stringing aid standard. I would also like a peep sight option available or a red dot sight. Stainless or t...

Well, I played around with some compound crossbows and they were fun.but have now gone back to just Excalibur. I just prefer the recurve look, feel and shooting experience. And in a goal to simplify I now own only two of them( had seven at one time). Matrix 330 and Mag 340 both I can cock without a ...

I 'm sure this has been asked before but what is the weight difference in aluminum versus SMF rails of the same length? Is one heavier or not?

I would heat up each bolt before trying to remove them. They are installed very, very tight and you might strip out the allen head or your wrench end. Use a long wrench for more leverage.

So I went out for some target shooting to try out a 1x scope and new Baby Bumpers on my Matrix 330. Shooting a few different bag targets I made I stripped fletchings off an arrow. Then I dry fired the bow ; the string jumped over the bumpers and tore a limb tip off. I have dry fired before without b...

I try to power through with my legs but sometimes it is a two step pull; first to the anti-dry fire then a second little tug to the latches. Of the dozen Excals I have owned the Axe is my favorite.

I try to power through with my legs but sometimes for me it is a two step pull; one to the anti dry fire then one little tug to the latches.

I bought this used Axe. Did not need it. Own a bunch of bows. but I love it. Probably be my "go to bow" in the fall. I have no owners manual so was wondering what is the recommended brace height. I am slightly off the bumpers but I want to know the actual measurement should be from the ris...

Just picked up a Blackheart Bypass cocking rope to use with my new Axe (btw my new favorite) and it is a neat 4 pulley design idea but I found it more of a hassle than a help. It made the draw lighter but much longer. Using the regular cocking rope was much better. So back it goes to Amazon.

Thanks for the recommendation. Do you use the CVA handgun for deer hunting? I use a TC Contender carbine but might want to try handgun hunting. And I know that the CVA costs less than another Contender barrel.

So in trying to have the lightest bow possible I am looking for a decent red dot sight. I want one with a choice of reticle ( not just a single dot or three dots lined up) that would sit low on the scope rail for a low line of sight. And I can't spend a lot of money (under $200) Any recommendations ...

So I now have an Axe that came with Air Brakes installed.
I like my bows as light and simple as possible so should I remove them or do they serve a useful purpose? Do they help protect the limbs from breaking or just noise reduction? What say you?
