Re: Questions on buying Matrix 380

However, I read a thread on here that worried me. The scope that comes on the 380. I heard of people, seems a few, having problems with them. ...

Re: Questions on buying Matrix 380

My bad. I am using a cocking aid. I am using the string that comes with the package from Danny. Though they were talking about the cocking aid that goes on the butt of the stock.
