Re: Changes on the Micro, not in scope settings.

I love how simple they are as well!! It's disappointing to hear of all the limb failures though

Re: Shooting Rest/Bipod

Does the trigger stick work from a tree stand? Is anyone mounting the bipod to the crossbow?

Re: Broadhead Target

Both are nice targets but the blob will last 5-8 times longer in my experience. I shoot a lot of broadheads!

Re: Pebbled Limb on Micro 4 Pic's

I have a micro night mare as well. Have had three sets of limbs replaced. Use mine for target practice when not hunting. Limbs just exploded on mine. Great warranty though, keep cost down, go back to your dealer for service. Right limb exploded the last time after only 149 shots, I keep a record of...

Shooting Rest/Bipod

What are folks using for a shooting rest? Anyone try the ready shot?

Thanks!

Re: Broadhead Target

I've been using the blob for about 7 years and never noticed arrow wear, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist as I certainly never looked for it. I have never had any problems.

Re: Micro 335 VS Matrix 355

The 355 is the best one in the lineup in my opinion. Never shot the micro but I did handle one. Harder to cock, less performance and too many problems for me. I dont understand you statement here. Too many problems? Less performance? every one has their favorite but to say any Excalibur has too man...

Re: Broadhead Target

I've had the 18:1 and still have the blob. The 18:1 lasted about 6 months. The blob will last at least 5x longer than the 18:1

Re: outdoor life micro test

Interesting. There are an awful lot of posts about micro failures on multiple sites. I'm pretty new to crossbows, but I don't remember ever seeing so many posted in so many different places before but it would only take a couple of "vocal" posters to do so I guess. I personally would not b...

Re: outdoor life micro test

The micro is the most trouble free model of excal? It seems like I keep hearing of limb failures with some folks having multiple limb failures after replacements, etc. Maybe some of that was blown way out of proportion?

Now the Micro, What's Next?

I'm new to crossbows and bought a Matrix 355 (hunted with it exactly twice this fall and killed deer with it both times). Now the Micro is here and I wish I would have known it was coming. What do you think the next upgrades will include and does anyone have suggetions on the best place to sell my a...

Matrix 355 vs Micro 335 Cocking Effort?

Can someone comment on how they compare? Sounds like the 335 requires quite a bit more effort? If that's the case, I will stick with my 355.

Thanks!

Re: EM Micro 335 Chrono Tests

So how much harder to cock is it than the 355-pretty noticeable?
