New Excalibur Owner

Post by Solid19xX »

Hello Folks
Bought my Excal. (M355) last yr, after my, then newly bought (reverse limb) training wheels blew off after couple of shots sighting in the bow. So i was on a mission to find a replacement. Something Compact,Durable,Balance and Lite-Weight. Thats when i came across the Matrix. Guess your cant go wrong with the Basic Design! Took my 1st Deer (6pt @40 yd) last hunting season also!!!
I remember 1st time shopping for an XBox in Dundee, Mi. This Gentleman came by and said: Don't even bother looking at those, get an Excaibur! So if your on this Forum: Thank You! Best Advice for new xbower.
Sadly the time has come and I'm selling the M355, always wanted an All Black Matrix. The 380 I felt was too much, and now there's the 330! It's got all the right spec for me over the 355. Shorterpower stoke, lighter weight, shorter overall length and 330fps, and with all the Knowledgeable folks on this forum, it's time to build the Perfect Excalibur I've alway dream of...

The guy who told you not to bother with anything other than an Excalibur nailed it . A friend of mine is about to receive his first Excal after about 3 years of struggling with a compound crossbow breaking limbs and constant issues . As all of us know he is in for a very pleasant surprise . Good luck with your new 330 , cant wait to hear everyones results on the new models . Do you already have a buyer for the 355 or considered the trading post ?

This was during the 2011 Mich. Bow season. If that's you, Thank You!
I sure would give the same advice if I saw someone looking for their 1st XBow.

My wife just got her 330 we plan on shooting it this weekend can't wait to break it in. I ended up turning my Black 380 into a 320 with the help of Danny Miller its all I'll ever need. It cocks real easy and is a tack driver.
