Axe Limb problem
Was shooting this afternoon and after a shot retrieved my arrow. Picked up the Axe and was greeted with a splinter in my thumb looked very close found a splinter on the top inside of the right limb . Not very long or deep but it's there just before the limb strap right through the camo filled out RMA on it I have around sixty shots on it , I know It will be corrected looks like the back up will be used for bear next week which will probably be the 308 short .

Re: Axe Limb problem
I kind of like my 308 Short and nothing wrong with it being a primary hunting tool!
Do you have a picture to share, would like to see a limb that has splintered?
Thanks, Be Safe, and Wishing you the best on your bear hunt!

Sorry to read this, hope everything turns OK for you.

Re: Axe Limb problem
Sorry to hear about the inconvenience.
The 308 getting called up from the minors won’t be an issue. It’s certainly capable.
Good luck and have a safe hunt.

Pop that small splinter off and go hunting. It will not affect your POI at all.

Re: Axe Limb problem
That's what I saw when I looked at it closer it is sliver it took the camo finish off and a little fiberglass . I will be shooting it later this morning . I doesn't look like it will cause any more damage .

Re: Axe Limb problem
It was a sliver clipped it off and went back to shooting it still dead on . The 308 short will do the job I wanted just a bit more speed and power but the 308 short is my backup as they both shoot the same arrow and weight . I shoot the Gold tip Swift pro made by Wyvern creations total weight with 100 grain tip is 370 grain .
