Sure, just cut them to 18".

I thought that you could shoot 20" arrows in the Matrix models as well as the 18". Am I wrong in this?

Not wrong at all! It just boils down to arrow spine. With the pounds packed into that matrix frame, a 20" laser ii would most likely have too much flex (weak spine.) Cut down to 18" the spine will stiffen, and your bolt will flex less, which should result in improved accuracy, and consistency.

Try before you cut. They (425 grains) fly just fine from my 355 fps Parker Cyclone

20" arrows shoot fine out of my 355.
