Re: scope ring question

I just got the Bolt for my b-day. I bought med. Leupold Rifleman rings and it's a perfect fit on my 355. Those Leupold rings are nice, I use them myself. It's good to hear they work for the Nikon bolt XR scope on the Matrix 355. Hey michigan man where are you from? I am in Marquette, MI. Andrew Bal...

arrow length on b.e. executioners

I'm going to order some B.E. Executioners for my 355. What would shoot better, 18" or 20"? I'll be getting the 110 grain inserts, SK-300 vanes, lumenoks, and using 100 grain VPA broadheads. Thanks

Re: Tiller Question

Where are you measuring this? I assume you are looking at the REDS. If so, it could be that one of the bumpers isn't set all the way in. Loosen the set screws, push in the REDS and re tighten the set screw. Check that. 1/32" is nothing. Especially if you are measuring on either side of the rai...

Re: Trouble getting Fletching to stick to painted shaft

I found the less glue I use the better. I put 4 small drops on and them spread them on the vane. I only use Loctite Gel.

Tiller Question

I just got a new 355, I haven't even shot it yet. I checked the tiller and it is off 1/32nd of an inch. Should I be concerned about this? What it effect broadhead flight? Thanks

2117 out of a Matrix 355

I just got a new Matrix 355 and I was wondering if 2117's would be ok to shoot out of it. I was thinking of cutting them to 18". Thanks

Re: single dot scope?

I also use a single red dot scope at 1x, zeroed at 30 yards. When I bought it scopes with magnification were against the law here so that's what I went with. But I shoot with both eyes open so the 1x actually works best for me. It doesnt have the light gathering abilities of a good rifle scope thou...

Re: single dot scope?

How do red dot scopes do in first or last light compared to a rifle scope? I'm thinking of more along the lines of a quality red dot like an Aimpoint or a Vortex.

2014 Matrix 355

Is there going to be any changes to the 2014 Matrix 355? My local shop has a 2013 355 display model that has only been shot a couple times(everybody is trying and buying the 380). I can pick up the 355 for 699.00 which I think is a pretty good price. Thanks for all replies.
