Re: Excalibur 405 riser opinion

if you dont send the riser in i would at least get the new spacers. chocking those limbs at the recoil plates in my opinion cant be good. ive been running my modded riser and spacers a few years now. no issues and only run factory strings.

Re: Excalibur 405 riser opinion

i would send the riser in. cant hurt. they will take a little radius off the shelf where the limbs leave the riser and install spacers that allow the limbs to breathe at the recoil plates. you shouldnt loose any speed if your limbs are already getting 405fps. my guess the reason you dont see as many...

Re: Striped Threads

closer threads make skip and tear out easier in soft metal. ive owned a boat load of older Horton crossbow with never a stripped bolt thread. the common thing is that they always used coarse threads. people like me :eh: sometimes honk down on stock bolts. the result is stripped threads. i dont under...

Re: Striped Threads

in the past ive tapped up a size. 12 -24 size. not sure why went with 10-32 with the stock screws. those finer threads to me are askin for stripping. the quiver mount holes down on the end use 10-24.

Re: new matrix string seems shorter??

going to flemish is always gonna cost in speed. one reason why i actually luv the factory strings for my Excals that i want to shoot top speeds. ive played with twisting up higher brace heights and id say you could get maybe 6-10fps difference depending on string or model.

Re: Doe Master

i think some sub forums may be needed on this website. you have to scroll have down the page half way to even see new Topics. the page for Crossbow Hunting seams too top heavy. just a thought but i find it time consuming scrolling through too much to get to things.

Re: Micro 335 warranty repair wrong ?

if its a resin blob that is causing a tiller issue then id smooth it out with a dremel or file. ive never seen a limb blob but if its from a set of blemished limbs then id just smooth it out.

Re: 2" chop saw for arrow cutting

i bought the harbor freight cutter years ago. dont use it for arrows anymore. they sell different blades. the one that comes with it is more of a general metal tooth blade unless they changes models.that being said i picked up a archery arrow saw motor and made my own set up. the motor has much more...

Re: Salt licks

What are your thoughts on using salt licks/calcium blocks, for Deer? What kind/type do you use, block or granules? Do you use them year round, (at your stand/in your hunting area) or just in the fall? :eusa-think: If going to go to the trouble of putting something out for your deer, then use someth...

Re: The Thunder is back in the house!!! Updated

the angle of the modified 405 riser i have doesnt look changed. just the edge got rolled back. if your not getting the speed i think either the limb deflection or try twisting up the string a little and see if that adds a few more fps.my Matrix models shot faster with more space between the string s...
