Probably the best all around bow produced by Excalibur at this time.

I agree, I think it is the sweet spot of the Matrix lineup.

Re: DAD GUM...!!!!

Yeah I will inspect them don't know if it was one or all 4 got crunched. Be some inserts to salvage I guess. IF they look good and no obvious crunch marks ..guess I will put a field tip in them and pull the trigger see what happens.

Re: Pressure Canning

I have canned lots of vegetables, but never meat. I'm interested in doing this, could someone post some pictures of their canned meat (fish, deer, chicken). I know it works, but always figured the end dish would be tacos, chili or a beef stew type dish. Funny I even buy canned chicken, salmon and tu...

For all around hunting and shooting...give some love 355 brothers. Draw weight(not to bad) Speed..quick, heft, length of draw, accuracy, reliability...I RECOMMEND them to everyone I know that wants to talk crossbows and hunting or shooting...though if I could get my hands on a MATRIX 310/330 I would...

Re: String stretch

It's good to have to add a twist now & again. That helps tighten the serving up, and means your string has elasticity in the fibers. If you shoot a lot, you'll get more stretch out sooner. I don't mind doing it either..just read all the post "no string stretch at all".. got me to wond...

Re: Only Took 1 1/2 Years

I think the sweet spot for EXCAL is the MATRIX 355...But I love the MATRIX 330, IF I were to get another xbow it would be the Matrix 330. You made an excellent choice for years to come.
