Oracle X- Assassin

Is there anyone making some type of part to address the additional comb height needed for the newer rangefinding scope such as the Oracle X and Garmin Xero? I want something that fits securely and also doesn't look terrible like I don't want to just glue foam on the stock.

Any tips appreciated

Assassin 400 TD

I am looking to get the Assassin 400 TD. I am hoping to use this bow for target as well as hunting. My micro 335 and Assassin 360 really tear up servings very quickly. I have read there is a way to polish the claw in the trigger mechanism. Has anyone done this on an assassin? Any input appreciated

Before and After PICS!

Followed the advise given to me about painting bows and I think it turned out great! I would have liked to have gone with a darker brown, and maybe I will add some color contrast to it. Im interested to see how the paint holds up after shooting and hunting for a season. Also does anyone know where t...

Few more questions for those who have done it. Any specific brand of primer recommeneded? How many coats of SEM paint di...

finish/ coating on limbs?

I have an exomax that I would like to personalize by changing the color from the original camo to a solid color like a brown or olive green. This would be very easy to do to the stock- but presents a problem on the limbs because they obviously move back and forth. What type of proccess would be need...

Re: Arrow retention

To clarify..if I slide an arrow in and tilt the bow down, the arrow will slide out of the bow. That's how loose it is

Do they sell the rubberized arrow retainer? Is there a way to tighten it on an Eco series model? Thanks

Aftermarket Micro Strings?

I do not have good luck with the factory strings. The serving comes apart right where the trigger grabs it after maybe 15-20 shots and gets worse and worse even with keeping everything lubed and waxed.

Are there better aftermarket options?

Thanks!

Cost of Micro Limbs?

Recently had a limb crack on me and it was promptly taken care of. Happened after 5 years of owning the bow. I'm thinking as long as a have a spare string, stringer, and a spare set of limbs that I shouldn't have to worry too much about the bow going down while I'm out of state. How much would a set...

Had some trouble at the range/ Need new arrows

Hi all. I ended up loosing a bunch of arrows yesterday firing my Micro 335. I was using the stock quills with Lumenoks I installed myself and Exodus 125g broadheads. The bow was shooting dead on at each individual range (20, 30, 40, 50) but for whatever reason a perfect zero at 40 went clear over th...
