Anyone install a crank on a Matrix 380 ?

I have a Matrix 380 that I like very much. I have killed lots of deer with it, and have great confidence in that crossbow. I have an opportunity to buy another 380 from a friend who has drank the Raven Crossbow Kool aid, and will sell his. My wife will be taking up crossbow hunting this year. She is...

Re: Best place to buy Matrix 380 parts

Thanks to each of you for your reply. I was considering the entire front, as that is what Excalibur shipped my friend last year when he snapped a limb.

Best place to buy Matrix 380 parts

I am considering a purchase of a complete front (limbs, string, etc.) for my Matrix 380. Last fall just prior to deer season my buddy snapped a limb on his 380. Excalibur was super to deal with, and arrangements were made to quickly ship him a new front. However, if that happened on an out-of-state ...

Re: Stirring the pot...Broadhead opinion

Grim Reaper 100 gr on the standard Diablo arrow. 11 deer taken, 1 lost (I made a bad shot). Broadhead head worked perfectly each time. Broadheads come 3 per. package and one practice head.

Re: How cold is cold for you?

I have taken a number of Whitetails at temps below 0 F. My wife and I hunted caribou in northern Quebec on snowshoes one day when the high temp was -21 F. I've done cow elk hunts in January when temps are often below 0 F. I really enjoy hunting when its cold and snowy !!!!

Off season Storeage of Excalibur 380

I know this has been discussed before. However, new information, theories, and experience continue to emerge in the crossbow world. I believe the Excalibur folks advise to NOT remove the string from the Matrix 380 for storage. Just make certain the proper brace height is correct from time to time. I...

Help - New Limbs and riser ?

I'm trying to sort through all the information here on the forum. I have a Matrix 380 that is a couple years old. I have had one limb break. Am I to understand there are new and improved replacement limbs ? Should I return it for a different riser ? I'll be traveling 1500 miles this fall for a hunt....
