Firebolts
Just refleched an Easton made firebolt for a friend with 2" blazers. Will
try it out this afternoon. Easton also makes their own bolt called a
"powerbolt" The Firebolt made exclusively for Excalibur is 20+ grains
heaver than the GT Laser II. I believe Easton's own "powerbolt" weighs
somewhat more. There was a thread on this topic some time ago.
I think it had some specifics on bolt weights.

The conotation that the crossbow anti's give the word "BOLTS" is quite detramental to crossbow users. Most crossbow users refrain from calling the arrows bolts so as not to set any distinguishing things for the anti's to use.
Even though the dictionary defines "bolt" as an ARROW used in a crossbow it is far better to call them arrows There is no sense or intelligence in gving the anti's something to use against crossbow people!!!!

Not sure about your post:
Call them what you want, but if you seriously think that using the term "bolt" is more prejudicial than "arrow", then I think you might want to not use the term "crossbow" either. Might lead to more use of the term "crossgun".
I guess "horizontal bow" would be safer.
Maybe we should have the courtesy to start another thread about the terminology of crossbows and accessories?
