Micro 380 issue's
Hey guys wondering if anyone else is having issues with the new 380 Micro s . The scope #'s only illuminate upto the 60 pin and the stick on silence pads blew off with in 10 shots . Is that normal with the scope ?
Re: Micro 380 issue's
My Tactzone 100 lights up to and including the 100 yard pin. I'm not suggesting what you should do but personally, I wouldn't worry about it too because it not likely that I'll be shooting anything at that distance, especially when I need the light and that I'd deal with it after hunting season if at all.
After having 2 bows with the silencer pads at the limb tips come flying off, I gave up on them. I figure that no amount of silencing is going to help me get a deer so why give up the arrow speed and energy?

X2 to everything Boo said.
If the non-lighting reticles really bother you, Excal will surely take care of it under warranty. You definitely got a defective scope. Though far better to have the ones lighting that you do, instead of the inverse.

Re: Micro 380 issue's
Maybe I misread it, but your TACT100's numbers illuminate? I have three of them and the numbers don't illuminate on any of them. Only the aiming points illuminate on mine. The aiming points beyond 60 yards are quite small. They're only a tiny dot at extended ranges. You have to have to good background to be able to see the smallest ones.

Re: Micro 380 issue's
I wouldn’t want to clutter up my FOV with illuminated numbers and if you’re shooting at an animal beyond 60y in poor enough conditions to merit illumination, you probably shouldn’t take that shot. I don’t use silencing add-ons to my bows. If you want to tame the twang, go to a Flemish string.

Re: Micro 380 issue's
The bare bones answer to your comment is that both of those are warranty items, and Excalibur will resolve both issue quickly. Contact them sooner than later should you decide to process. However, with hunting season all but on top of us, I personally would hold off until January and replace the scope through warranty then.bigbuckfisher wrote: ↑Sun Sep 25, 2022 10:38 pmHey guys wondering if anyone else is having issues with the new 380 Micro s .

I'm also in the camp of no silencing. I've shot bows at shows with the pads, but I've never owned a bow with them installed. And certainly would not go through any effort to reinstall them.
