OK guys, rags are ok but are heavy to lug about, and do not stop arrows all the time.
Use neoprene, get hold of a wetsuit maker or a company that makes waders and ask for off cuts, you will need a fair bit to stuff in a bag but it works and is light. Stops my matrix arrows very well.

Alternatively I drill out the allen socket and use a commercial extractor.

lesson learned
OK so out of the 4 stock arrows that I received with my blackout and the 20 I had waiting for it to arrive I now have 3 operational, 4 of the 24 have been robin hooded and the rest have very unhappy fletchings, I believe the moral of this story is :idea: DO NOT shoot your arrows at the same spot.......

Re: matrix 380!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hawke XB-30 Compact. Optical clarity is much better than last years XB1 model. The illumination dial has been replaced with a digital touchpad. The illumination goes down to a lower level than before, so that the light doesn't flood the scope and wash out the reticle. Merging of the reticle has bee...

Re: Update on my 355
Ive put 2 shots on the stock string and over 200 on my first Boo string (I have 2) with minimal wear.
happy with results, just getting a new scope soon as I am not a fan of the TZ.
I think we should all start stockpiling Boo strings, just incase he retires

Re: Grain Scale
if you can not find one, get a set of digital scales and weigh your arrow, take the weight and go online and convert, in on line conveyer, thats what I do and its super easy, when you have done it enough times or you write down the chart and bingo.
