Maybe a silly question

Post by Sherriff »

Can I use any of the bolts (aluminum or carbon) that Excalibur makes with my Axiom SMF bow??
I tried the carbon forebolts that came with my Axiom but would like to try the aluminum bolts as well...

Thanks

Aluminum or carbon will be fine. The 22 series aluminum are very good at 20". 2117 will work too.

I shoot alunimum and carbon from all my excals. Depends on broadhead, blunts ect. and how much thumping power I want. Rabbits I use alunimum because of price when I lose them in the snow.

They both work, aluminums bend and stay that way, becoming worthless for accuracy, why I prefer carbons..
