Excalibur Crossbow Forum

I prefer it to be a bit high.

OK went and shot it today to check it out. I had backed the elevation down to about the middle if its range. Took a shot I was about 4 inches low adjusted and at 22 yards using the crosshair I was one inch high right at the top of the 2 inch bullseye. At 30 yards using the first chevron marker on th...

Two were about pop can thickness two a little thinner. Was raining yesterday so I did not go out. Rain tonight too but I will go out tomorrow and give it a try and post my results.

Thanks I have killed deer with 100, 125 and 140/50 grain broad heads Just wondering on what you all thought. On the average I do not shoot over 40 yards with 30 or closer being the norm.

Read an article about crossbow arrows and they guy said to use 125 grain broad heads if your gonna shoot at a longer distance. Said they just are more accurate at a longer distance any truth to this or just his opinion?

Yea I saw your post that you were shooting high. I will try 4 shims in the back that should give me some lee way. I bought some steel shim stock at the gun shop. Cost me a grand total of 50 cents.

If not for two Senators it should have been this year maybe if we are lucky it will be. I can use a crossbow I have a disabled permit but I would like to see any one who wants to use one be able to besides being 65 or disabled.

Hummer I am sure that Moulton would be for it.
