Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Carbon Firebolts from Excalibur with a 100 gr target head have an FOC of 8.7% and a 150 gr target head is 14.5%. I don't have any info on 125 gr heads.

Thank you to all that replied. Looks like the 300 mark as Wabi suggested. I'm going to put together a couple 2213s to see how they shoot.

Right now, i'm getting a consistent 290 with a 432 gr arrow and a ViperX string. I was hoping to get into the 315 fps area. I guess i'll just have to build an arrow and borrow my buddies chrony again.

Anyone else shoot this set-up?

What kind of FPS can i expect out of my Phoenix shooting a 360 gr setup and a FFF string?

While you have Dan on the phone, ask him if he has any alternatives to solving the problem.

First of all, there should be no slop in the scope mount at all. You will never get it tight enough. Second, the scope dial should not keep turning. It will stop when you are out of adjustment. If it keeps turning, you have a problem. You don't want to go into hunting season with any problems like t...

Buckeye War Bonnet!!!!

Ebay.......You can find one pretty darn cheap. When using you're new digital scale, the arrows will naturally want to roll off. Stick a piece of doubled over masking tape on it then push the "tare" button to zero the scale and you can weigh your arrows and components without them rolling o...

On the video, it doesn't show mounting the dissapator bars, it only shows mounting the pads. So what i did to make sure they are mounted right, i took the pads off and then backed out the screws holding the straps and re-tightened each screw evenly until snugged and then reinstalled the pads.

Does anybody know how much you should tighten these down?

How tight do you tighten the dissapater bars? I noticed that there was a small gap between the end of the pad and the limb. I started tightening and it seems you can just keep going as it is squeezing the pads down to the point they are bulging.

I also use a compound case & remove the limbs for extended trips but for around the hood i just put a short cable lock (the type you get for a hand gun) around the string and through the stirup and put it in my back seat. Keeps me legal.

I like it!!

Vortex makes two models, 8x25 or 10x25. Have heard nothing but good things about Vortex optics. I know i saw them cheaper somewhere for around $39.00

I noticed other crossbow retention springs also not touching the deck so i bent mine up a little. What i found was that it was much noisier if it's not touching the deck. If you bang the side of the deck with your palm you can hear and feel the vibration. I ended up taking the spring off and bending...
