Hey GUEST (coward), why don't you peddle your pitty elswhere, do you really think its for fun? Well FYI its kind of a service I like to do for the farmers whose property I deer hunt on. Is it fun when their livstock break legs and have to be put down, is it fun when when a $100,000+ piece of farm machinery get broken due to the varmints holes and dirt mounds. I don't think so. So let me ask you this GUEST :roll: , do you cry :cry: or just go, oh well, when take an animal or catch a fish. Also it keeps us practiced up with our rifles in the off season and try out our new handloads, for the upcoming deer hunts.

How did the trigger feel BigBear :?: On my Max it is stiff hard to pull making me pull off target to the left innless I really pull real slow. We are getting it down pat but I tell ya that extra 25lbs make a big difference in trigger pull. :twisted:

....Hi Gary..i took an exocet rail from a friend and did the testing with the max riser...end result was great, trigger pull was just super :) ...also easy to load, with plenty of speed to boot..same speed as the mag, but it just feels better when shooting..sorta like it fits like a glove 8) ...end result..super great bow.. :wink:

Has anyone ever measured this exact angle? It shouldn't be too hard to machine the riser to the new angle or even make a new riser, for that matter in a milling machine.
