The key part of the equation is the "where it should go part"
Shot placement is the key.

That's a very nice buck. Forget about the antlers, it's still a beauty.

Re: Cocking cb with safety on
O.K. - I tried again and it would not cock with the safety on.

Re: Rage fail!!!
If you did not have a lower entrance hole, the blood in the cavity will not flow out. Meant to say exit hole.

Cocking cb with safety on
I wasn't paying attention and cocked my Matrix 330 with the safety on. Will this harm the crossbow?
If not, this may be the way I do it from now on, since I will not need to worry about setting the safety after cocking.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
