Groups record!

Post by Matthias72 »

Hey Guys,
Today I did my best groups at 110 yards distance with my new Exocet 200. I'm very satisfied , Exocet is a great crossbow! :D

not bad :D

farthest ive shot my exomax was 80 yards but i guess im gonna have to try a little farther out.

roughly how much drop would there be at 110yards if i was zerod at 50?

How do you get the arrows to enter the target so level a 110 yards? I find that even at 40 yards the arc causes them to enter at a bit of an angle.

:D Impressed! We are some shooters here in Sweden that are interested in long distance shooting too. My new project is to prepare an Exomax for this purpose. Did you know they have competetions like that in Germany? What kind of scope mount do you use? I can see most people are limited to shoot that long because of their scope mount. I like the pictures alot!

Ch312,
The drop is a LOT!
My arrows exit speed is 321fps, at 110 yards it is 265fps, 410 grs arrows. 1.5" blazer vanes helps a lot to have a flat trajectory.
If you tell me:
fletching type (feathers or Vanes, lenght, height, angle)
shaft size
shaft lenght
arrow weight
arrow exit speed

I can calculate your trajectory and I can tell you with a good precision the drop.


TPM,
I angle at 110 yards distance a little the target. In this way arrows hit the target at 90°. The target is a multilayer target, so I angle the target until the arrows arrive exactly parallel to layers (minimum target damage).



Swede,
I use a normal varizone scope, with exalibur mount. I have a little modified the mount to angle more the scope.


Stosh,
This targets are made in USA. They are McCenzie Crossbow targets.
Here 120 euro. But, believe me, the best invstiment done by our crossbow group: they are practically eternal.

It's not the aptitude but the attitude that determines the altitude!
