Made A Mistake Today
Went down to get some Panther Martin lures for a grayling fishing trip I got planned this weekend. Have been trying to stay away from archery dept. but thought what can it hurt, unfortunately the Matrix xbows were there. Picked them up, checked them out and tried drawing them. I have not felt a need for more speed than my Vortex gives so took a real liking for the 355. That is one svelte, compact and quick handling xbow. Reminded myself I am going fishing this week and escaped. Got a feeling that next week My Vortex will have a buddy.

I'm sure your Vortex would love to have a partner...

You won't regret it. I finally caved and ended up with a 380 and I'm glad I did.

Good luck, I couldn't hold back and had to have a Matrix 380 for some reason even though my Vortex was a tack driver.

Re: Made A Mistake Today
Well how can I go against what the good book says! Have a question for you Matrix users. I have shortened my Firebolts to 18". They are fletched with 2" Blazers using the "Bolt" and tipped with 175 gr. SlickTrick magnum. They blast through about anything and accuracy from the Vortex improved. Has anyone tried this with the 355? I have a lot of them around and a common arrow for both xbow would be a real convenience. I did not check diameter or wall thickness of the Diablo yet. The NOX is about the same speed and was sold with Firebolts.

Re: Made A Mistake Today
Reckon they should work. I wouldn't buy any others til i tried them out
Re: Made A Mistake Today
Thanks VM. Kind of thought that but want to avoid partial dry fire. Have not had a DF yet and it never hurts to ask all the experience on here. Might install a pair of suppressors to do testing.

Re: Made A Mistake Today
As long as you seat the arrow & shoot 350gr or more i doubt you will have a dryfire fer those reasons
