Re: Matrix 405 vs 380

How big a boy are ya? Let me say same things as your first reply. The 380 will kill anything on earth you want to hunt (that is of course you hit it in correct place). That said, if you are the gotta have the newest,fastest,bestes crossbow on earth then the 405 is for you. But, keep in mind that aft...

Re: shotgun chokes

I always check with supplier you want to purchase chokes from. Some will ship to Canada and some won't. Last ones I ordered came with machine parts on envelope! No issues there, hint,hint. Smaller manufactures will do this, cabelas, brownells etc no go. The folks at Elwood Epps in Barrie/Orillia are...

Re: How i turns my scope as a vibration stabilizer

A good layer of black automotive silicone inside top and bottom rings before you install rings will have similar effect. I have been doing this for 20+ years on every scope mounted. It serves a number of issues, it will stop even the heaviest of scopes from moving in big recoiling calibers. It preve...

Re: Matrix Moose-Ontario

Thanks all! For those of you that have experienced the thrill of a bull coming to the call you know how it feels. My best story to date is, on my first archery hunt (25 yrs ago) I had a bull coming in for over an hour. I was shaking so bad that as he got close, I had to take my belt off and strap my...

Re: looking for meat

Suggestion, call your local police dept and explain and ask if you can get on list for few road kill calls. Most forces don't mind a number to call when it happens at night. You'll need to be available and willing to do a little work. Some will be soup meat and others with very little damage. I alwa...

Re: ranger finder dumb question

This is exactly why if you are going to hunt from tree stand you need to sight bow in from tree stand. over the years I've seen dozens of misses when people shoot over animal because bow sighted in on ground. Whole new game when 18-20 FT up.

Re: matrix 380 vs matrix 405

Unless you are planning on hunting T Rex I can not see any reason to go above 380. My 380 is capable of 1" groups out to 90 yards, nothing on earth I can't take with it.

Re: Rinehart 18-1 targets, and arrow removal?

Another option is to take some acetone on rag and wipe logo and any writing off shaft. It is this paint that melts on impact and then hardens by time you get to target making removal a beast. I find it very handy as it makes it simple to keep track of my practice shafts - one's with no logo on them....

Re: why that broadhead

G5 Strikers fly best out of my 380. Tried four different types, the steel force xbow phat head on par with G5 for accuracy and a heavy duty head.

I have seen too many expandable a fail to even consider them. I also use xbow mainly for moose.
