Re: Axiom scope problem

I called Excalibur today and they said if I send my scope back they will send me a new one as you should not have to bottom out the elevation dial to try to sight it in. It's packed up and on it's way back. Hope to get the new one in the next few days so I can get back to shooting and get zeroed in....

Re: Axiom scope problem

I went out again today and was dead on at 20 yrds, but was about 3-4" low at 30 yrds. At 30 yrds I'm using the the 1st triangle under the crosshairs, and I'm putting the top of the triangle on my target...is this correct or should I be putting the bottom of the triangle on my target? Rob You a...

Re: Axiom scope problem

The Axiom comes as a complete package with scoope and rings so the rings I am using are from Excalibur and appear to match (front and back) I have the rings spaced as far apart as I can but I am curious why you ask? Why would that change POI ? I think I just have a bad scope as it does not seem to h...

Re: Axiom scope problem

I am wondering if upgrading to the vari zone scope would be the best thing to do?I will post a message once I talk to Excalibur on Monday and see what they have to say. I have heard that customer service is top notch so hopefully they will take care of things quickly as opening day is quickly approa...

Re: Axiom scope problem

One other thing I noticed on my axiom scope is that it only "clicks" on every fourth line when you adjust i? Is that the way all Excalibur scopes are or does the upgraded vari zone have an audible click on every line?

Re: Axiom scope problem

I'm going to call them Monday morning and see if I can get a quick replacement so I can get sighted in for the season.

Axiom scope problem

Got my new axiom all sighted in although I thought it was odd that I had to turn the elevation screw almost all the way down to zero it in. Shot well for several days and then today it started shooting very high. Checked all screws bolts etc and everything was fine. I am shooting about 3 inches high...

Expandable broadhead accuracy

Just wondering what kind of accuracy I should expect with the xact heads? I am shooting an axiom and from 30 yards off the bench am getting shots approximately I inch to 1 1/2 inches from the bullseye and I was wondering if this is as good as it gets? With field points I can nearly put one right in ...

String Maintenance

I'm new to crossbows and I was wondering about waxing the string. Can you and should you use the Excalibur serving wax on the entire string or just the serving? On the instructional video they show just using it on the serving but I have always waxed the entire string on my vertical bows to keep the...

Re: Expandable Broadheads

I have been practicing with both the xact and spifire and so far do not see much difference as far as accuracy. Both seem to shoot just like field points from my axiom

Re: Axiom

I just got an axiom also and love it so far. I was going to go for the top of the line originally but after picking up and holding an axiom I noticed how much lighter it was and decided to go with it. Shoots extremely consistent and tonight I did some shooting with the x act broad heads which were d...
