Expert opinion needed

Post by mooseman »

I have recently inherited an older exocet and I am not sure what model it is..It says "exocet" on the body tag it has a milled riser and mag tip limbs..I'm thinking it's a 175 but not sure if there is any other way to tell the 175 from the 200?
thanks for the help

I think I may have figured this out after a little researching...it has the flat milled riser so it's a 175 I think..I think the 200 had the angled riser correct?

I agree, especially since the old Excaliburs are not 5'X5', but rather 3'X3'. So even a vertically challenged 5X5 like you should be able to handle them. :P

Anthony all kidding aside, and I'm speaking from experience, the Exo-series are some of the best CBs ever produced. They are virtually indestructible, easy to string and cock and second to none when it comes to accuracy. To think otherwise, you'd be making a huge mistake in judgement, especially since you've never owned any.
