Broadhead sight in

Post by NEPAbowhunter »

Just got done sighting in my Vortex. I am using a 2 x 7 Leupold for a scope. The cross hair is dead on at 25 yards, top post is on at 15 yards and bottom post is on at 35 yards. Shot 100 grain Slick Trick magnums and standards along with a Rage Crossbow X practice head. Both the Rage and Slick tricks hit the same spot as my field points out to 35 yards. Shooting spine tuned Black Eagle Executioners with brass lock and load inserts and 2 inch Blazer vanes. The arrows were made by Jerry at South Shore Archery. I plan on going with the Rage Crossbow X this year. Had good luck with Rages when I shot them out of vertical bows in the past. The Vortex with these arrows is downright deadly. Every arrow is in the bullseye, no flyers! Looking forward to the upcoming season which opens October 5th here in Pennsylvania. :D
