Matrix 405 First Blood

Post by whitetail1 »

This is my 1st year with the crossbow. Bought the Matrix 405. Using the standard Diablo bolts with the 150 grain boltcutters. Practiced with field points and the broadheads and the accuracy was very good out to 50 yards. No plans to shoot at any deer beyond 40 yards though. I had been seeing does for 3 weekends in a row. Finally had this guy walk thru!! I am very happy with the Excalibur crossbow! :D :D

Thanks guys! SEW - Yes it was not only a pass-thru, but all but 3" of the bolt was buried into the ground! This was a 20 yard shot. Amazing power! :D
