Re: Matrix 380 - FOC - broadhead weight?

With that brass insert you will have plenty of foc the 125 or 100 grain broadhead of your choice will /should fly fine the 25 grain difference between the two is minimal. I wouldnt go any higher in broadhead weight than 125 grain. Say you were to pick a heavy broadhead like a foc they weigh like 170...

Re: removing the adf on a micro

I love your wording (spontainesly dissassemble) it seams like if i never had a 330 without it it wouldnt be such n issue. I definately am at least keeping the stock string. Like you said the micro has a considerabley higher draw weight than my 330 matrix thats a good point

Re: Hunting and Shot distance for Xbow vs Compound

I shot a longbow for years with a 25 yard self limit. The micro feels like a bazooka. My new limit in my p.a. woods is now a self limit of 40 yards . I dont practic any further than that to tempt me into a range im not perfect at. Especially in a windy condition.
