Simply stated, dial in on the 60 yards, then go back to twenty, and you probably won't notice a change there. I do all of my fine tuning at the longest distance i plan on shooting, but as Dash pointed out, if you have anything out of whack, you'll struggle.
Makes Good Sense. I am fairly new to the world of crossbows but I shot my Mathews vertical bow a lot at 40 and 50 yards to practice....It made 20 and 30 yards seem like a chip shot.

Thanks everyone for all the help with the Matrix 355.....You guys are truly the BEST. Just like Excalibur, "THE BEST" I have shot so many animals with Exomax that I got from Dan Miller in 2004 and gone through so many Muzzy Blades. Also lost bolts. That when I sold the Exomax, my wife ask me whats wrong, how come you are so SAD. I told her i feel like I sold my best Friend. I used it the most to Hunt .Goats,Axis Deer and Pigs. That Bow has a lot of Story's to tell. Now its time to make new one's with the 355 Matrix :D

Hello, I will be sighting in my new 355 over the next couple of weeks as well.

I will be using the stock 18" diablo arrows with 100 gr. field tips, and I bought some NAP spitfire crossbow 100 gr mechanical broadheads. This is the same broadhead I used on my Phoenix. But after reading some of the post I fear the arrows might be a bit under weighted with 100 gr tip and heads?

thoughts?
