Re: Final Arrow & Broadhead Pick For My 380

I got the package from Danny Miller....I just had to pay the difference to upgrade the scope from the one that came with it...he stocks the Leupold scopes...he would probably discount the package if you did not want that scope and did not want to get one of his...he will work with you.

Final Arrow & Broadhead Pick For My 380

After several hundred shots I have found my perfect setup for deer hunting. Since I already had an Aero-vane Jig and like the Firenoks I tested for that system. I also shot blazer vanes and several types of broadheads. I am using a 20" Aero-bolt II with lighted firenok, Aero Vane II, and using ...

Re: Matrix, AeroVane 3 & D Nock

I tried mechanicals and they shot much worse than the fixed points. Dorge says this is an extreme vane that does not perform like any other....it is spinning so fast it gives mechanicals a fit. If the Hartcrafts fly like he said they would this would be a very flat shooting set up and be very good i...

Re: strange string problem with Matrix

There was no wind today...yesterday it was very windy and they were shooting good at 30 yards. I did have a semi dry fire 2 days ago when a flat nock that was plastic I was using had the string jump it and arrow only went about 15 feet and stuck in the ground..after that I switched to D nock. Maybe ...

Re: Matrix, AeroVane 3 & D Nock

I shot at 50 yards today and could not get the following broadheads to come close to impacting close to where field point did...150 boltcutter, 100 grain slick trick, 150 grain slick trick, swacker, TNT. I found out that there may only be one broadhead that will fly with that set up...I have some or...

Re: Matrix, AeroVane 3 & D Nock

I never had a flat nock that was a plastic flat firenok jump string until I tried the new vanes...that probably made it jump although I had 4 shots in before it did. I will test my set up with broadheads tomorrow at 40 and 60 yards to see what happens and post results.

Matrix, AeroVane 3 & D Nock

http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x444/john316mole/035_zpsbe60f04c.jpg After having the string jump a Firenock flat nock, I switched to the D nock and it works great. It will also fit inside the Lazer 3 and some other shafts. Just make sure cock vane is aligned with nock and it snaps into place. ...

Re: Regular nocks in a crossbow

I had string jump recently one of my flat nock firenocks so went with the D nock from Firenock...no problems...they are made much heavier and they also work in the PSE Tac 15. I am shooting them out of the Matrix 380. Just got in some aero-vanes 3's and will be testing them today.
