Matrix speeds

[Boo]

Craig at Gagnons sent me some speeds that he recorded.
" The 380 with a 352 grain bolt hit 387.5 fps , the 355 Matrix with the same bolt was 363 fps on our Chrony. "

Hot, hot, hot. In the imortal words of Eddy Murphy in Idependence Day, "I gotta have me one of these".

Awesome, I wish I had been a good boy. Maybe Santa would have brought me one of those new crossbows for Christmas, . Oh well, maybe next year, . I will stick with my Equinox. Thanks for the info Don.

Lmao...


Those are some impressive numbers!
I wonder if the limbs are interchangeable with the now "old style" risers... Or if they could even handle the longer draw.

Will?, Eddy?, Ralph?. Apologies for the faux pas, watched that movie long ago. I would be very cautious about installing those new limbs on a riser that looks very different. That could be a nasty slap in the face, on the other hand you might get to 400 fps.

I'm sure they probably widened the limbs just enough to make them incompatible.

Making them easily compatible would be irresponsible. I'm guessing the first one that tries it gets to tell us what those new limbs taste like

i hear ya, i'd love a excal that shoots that fast.. .oh, so ya know, it was Will Smith in Independence Day, not Eddy Murphy..lol

Actually, our advertised speeds were achieved with the endless loop string that comes standard on the matrix, no optional string required. The strings on the matrix are quite a bit shorter so you have to use a specific matrix string.

[awshucks]

so you have to use a specific matrix string.

Peter, does that mean the Matrix won't be able to use a FFF?
