Rail Depth - Micro

[nchunterkw]

I'm looking at some new feathers and wondered if anyone had the actual depth of the channel? And also how far a 0.300" OD arrow drops into the channel? Looking for a max ht. the feathers can be.

Thanks

Dunno, but I'd guess they are cutting the Micro rails out of same stock they've used forever???

If I really wanted to know if they would clear , I would fletch a short piece of arrow and lay it in the track ( Xbow uncocked ) and shine a light up the track from the stirrup and you could probably tell if they will clear .

I just measured the rail depth of my m380 with RCBS caliper, directly in front of the hold down spring. Average depth was 0.6475. Ferathers will compress more than plastic fletch without effecting accuracy imho with no reflection upon anyone else's findings. I couldn't get an accurate measurement of arrow drop in channel. I'm to shaky and nervous. Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I have some samples coming in so I will be able to check for sure. I think I'll be OK as they say they are the same as the Rayzr feathers I use now, but I saw some pics showing they are bigger. To be sure I'll have to wait for the samples I guess.
