Yoop,
I own 5 Leupold rifle scopes and know the quality of them. Warranty service is top notch also. I opted for the cross bones and will look at the new Hawke once it's been put to the test.
Wes, I did try a normal rifle scope on one of my Excalibers few years back. like you say simple and less clutter is good. For the new Matrix I'm wanting a few additional ref points to see how it can perform at longer distances. Thanks for all input.
Leupold or Nikon for Matrix??

Re: Leupold or Nikon for Matrix??
The XB30 does work perfectly on the Matrix 380. The speed ring will cover the actual Matrix speed if you are using 400 gr+ arrows. My 20,30,40,50 & 60 are right where they should be with the ring set at 350fps.
I was very unsure about using the XB30 with the 380 because speed ring will not go that high until I actually got the bows true speeds with the arrows I use.

I checked out the Redfield Revenge and it is worth a Look plus it has a $40 mail in rebate going on right now...

I own 10 Leupold's one pistol, one rimfire the others on centerfire rifle and of course one Leupold shotgun/muzzleloader scope on my Excalibur Equinox.Hunt it wrote:Yoop,

I had the Shadow-Zone scope, but the reticle was too busy and had poor light gathering characteristics.
I wanted a single crosshair set dead-on at 25 yards, so I can hold on hair from 0-30 yards with no worries.
