Re: If you could take a moment

Great to hear he is doing better. Between cocker spaniels and beagles you really know why they call dogs "man's best friend"!! :)

Re: Excalibur Dead Zone scope.

I currently use the dead zone that came with my 350le. Once zerod at 20yrds it shot great at 30 and 40yrds ith the respective chevrons. I find the scope to be good quality and easy to zero. At 40yrds hitting 2inch group with stock diablos and 150gr field points i see no reason to change my setup. Bu...

Re: Adhesive brake pads not happy

I use them as well and go one step further to make sure they stay on.

I wrap a piece of camo tape around the small lip of the adhesive pad to secure them to the limb on either side of the pad. I figure if they start to peel off it would do so from the side first.

Re: Stock diablos for matrix

I shoot stock diablos with 150gr fields as well out of my 350LE and agree that it is pretty damn accurate even for a beginner crossbow shooter. At 40yrds standing freehand with the deadzone scope i can hit within 2inches of exactly what i was aiming at with the triangle chevron. Considering i would ...

Re: TRIANGLE OF PAIN

I am a new xbow shooter and my 350le didnt come with the ADF scope mount. And i am really glad it didnt! Having shot rifles and shotguns all my life, i have been programmed to always have my safety on/point in safe direction/finger off the trigger until i am ready to shoot. So having the safety off ...

Re: 350LE vs. 350SE

Its awesome, I love mine. Its a cut down 405 mega. So basically a full treestand camo and 350fps matrix. It didnt come with airbrakes or reds though. My package from al flahertys came with quiver, cocker, 3 arrows and a dvd along with the xbow and deadzone scope. Not sure about weight and size but i...

Re: Info on Bow Parts

So i wonder why people are complaining about longer pull and grittiness out of bulldog triggers?

I know my 350LE trigger feels amazing lol

Re: Air brakes install

Start with the lower screws (near stirrup) those come out easier and are less likely to strip. Then do the upper screws. If they strip then you can try to swing the plate enough to loosen the top screws.

Best of luck and hope they dont strip on you!

Re: Arrow holder spring tension

My 350LE arrow retention spring was also really jammed down. To the point where almost half of the spring was against the rail. I tried bending it up as suggested but it still had a brutal angle and would scrape the hell out of the arrow shaft and vanes. I contacted Excal and they sent a replacement...
