Re: Suggestions on 350 LE upgrades?

Best "upgrade" you can add as far as I see is LOTS OF ARROWS! :mrgreen: Thanks MT BIGHORN, I have a total of 12 Diablo 18 inch bolts, been playing with tip weights a bit to see if I can match up my scope better. Is there any advantage to bolt types? Brand names etc? I'm already thinking f...

Hi Bob thanks for your input, do u have a link to something g particular that may be something that would match up to my set up? I think my ideal conditions would be the 40-60y yrd range.

Never even thought of that, thank you

Suggestions on 350 LE upgrades?

Hi all I'm just looking for some ideas from any of you fine people on what I can do to further upgrade my Matrix 350 LE. I have done some upgrades already but would like maybe some more thoughts on what I have done so far and where I can go from here to make this 350 a top notch bow. What it came wi...

Re: Bought 2nd matrix

I just did an extensive whack of upgrades to both bows a few days ago, I think all combined on both bows and accessories I'm into them over 2 grand now. Getting her off on the right foot with her griz somewhat justifies everything that I went overboard upgrading my 350, she's smiling so that's all t...

Re: Bolts for Matrix 350 LE

Just from my own personal observation, my 350 LE came with the 350 gr bolts and a shadowzone scope. the shadowzone is rated to a max of 350 fps. I found with this combination of bolt weight and scope dialed in at max that I believe the 350 LE is a little faster than 350 fps. Although I haven't chron...

Re: Bought 2nd matrix

Well when she's convinced it's something you can do together I'm sure she will jump on board with you. I myself don't use fire arms but my gf is an avid hunter with guns, she realized we won't hunt much together her with guns and me with a bow. She was tickled when she got the griz and knowing we ca...

Bought 2nd matrix

Well after being lucky enough to purchase a matrix 350 LE on boxing day for a steal of a price I have decided and just purchased an additional matrix grizzly 305 2 weeks ago. I was prompted to do so because I let my other half try my 350 and after she let off the 1st bolt and nailed the target at 40...

Re: Finally answers for the Matrix 350 LE Mossy

Racking up points I completely respect every word you say and can clearly see your point. On the flip side what I would find ludicrous is that a very well long time established respected retailer in all outdoor and hunting equipment would purposely mislead a long time customer and lead me to believe...

Re: Finally answers for the Matrix 350 LE Mossy

I am completely thrilled to be in the right place at the right time to be able to get this model regardless of its origins. I would think for excals entire lineups of various models this is the best bang for the buck in any event. I am in no way knocking excal in any way. After alot of research befo...

Re: Finally answers for the Matrix 350 LE Mossy

See wildcatter I think your bang on with this. Except there is no indication of any limb probs by itself, seems to be a prob with combination of all parts together as one., So far the closest thing to any official comments came from the dealer. I can tell u with full certainty that he knew what he w...

Re: Finally answers for the Matrix 350 LE Mossy

Well Comfybear you def gave me something to think about and educated me on things I didn't know. Thank you for that. All the above info in regards to the origin of the 350 has been handed to me by the retail dealer and some of my own research which I am passing along. Some of it combined makes sense...
