“Any 308 Short Failures or Problems Out There”

Post by Froghunter »

Hey All,

Just wondering if any have had any limb failures on the 308 Short Series of Excalibur Crossbow? Really interested in if any have had any problems with this “Small Jewel of a Crossbow”

Enjoying mine and it hasn’t had any problems so far!😉

Enjoying it so much, may sell off some of my other hunting and shooting gear for the 308 Banshee, maybe as a X-mas present to myself!

I think I need to get it before the “AXE Series”makes the the 308 Series extinct!🤔

Enjoy and Be Safe!

I had one zero issues!

If I were you I would buy the AXE though! :)
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

If the 308 Short is akin to the old Vixen, then you could shoot away without any fear.

If you like yours and haven’t had any problems then I believe that is the best testimonial you could listen to. :thumbup: Enjoy

Jeff, now you're talking. I just know you're itching to get one, so just DO IT.

I went fishing and got some bites! 😀

I think the AXE may be a little tough to rope cock?

Enjoy!
