Micro 335 string on a Micro 355???

A friend just received a Micro 355 Suppressor and I was wondering if my spare Micro 335 custom string would fit on his Xbow just for testing to see if it reduces noise. I wanted to check here before trying cause I don't want to mess anything up.

Rail Polishing

I have polished my latches with the same abrasive sheets Boo recommends and was wondering if the same sheets could be used to polish rail? What is a good technique to polishing the rail? On a different note I cut my BEE down to 15" and added a 110gr brass insert the switched to the 125gr Slick ...

Re: ? For the Micro suppressor owners

I had to polish the latches on my 335. One would think that Excalibur would use a more polished latch from the start. One quick question about polishing. Wouldn't you want to polish the bottom of the latches as well? It is kinda hard to get to while in the xbow. I bet you could throw the latch in a ...

Micro 335 Gen 1 or Gen 2?

In Aug 2016 I bought a Micro 335 and don't know if its a Gen 1 or 2. How can I tell which it is and what is the difference?

Re: 380 Matrix History

Any idea what could have caused this? I will say that dealing with Excaliburs service dept is very smooth and efficient..

Re: To Cut or Not

You will be good taking 4" off. By the time you get an insert and broadhead installed there is no way that you could stick your foot inside the stirrup without knocking the arrow loose. Just make certain you are staying over 350 grains total weight. Well if I cut off 4" I should still be ...

Re: To Cut or Not

https://i.imgur.com/Ml62yqt.jpg As you can see from the photo the arrows are way too long. Total length is 18.5 counting the nock and insert. My question is how many inches should I take off? My initial thoughts are to take off 4" and when I add the insert it should be flush with the limb bolt...

380 Matrix History

Hi fellas I have a question about the limb "survival rate" on the 380 Matrix. Was this bow more susceptible to limbs cracking/delaminating? I seem to remember that some time ago there was a problem with a few bows risers and excal changing them. Just curious as my pal is about to buy one s...

Re: To Cut or Not

This may be a stupid question but since my arrows came with what I assume to be 92gr brass inserts should I put back the 110gr ones since I am taking 3" or better off the arrow? The BEE is 9.1grs per inch so 3" is 27grs
