Just picked up my first Xbow today, a Micro 335.
It seems to shoot the Quills very well, but my state has an 18" bolt minimum.
What recommendations can I get for a good 18" bolt for my Micro? Going to try to shoot 125 gr. broad heads.
Micro 18" bolt??

Yep! The 18" will hang over the stirrup perhaps, but will shoot great.vixenmaster wrote:BEE's or Zombies is yer Huckleberry

Re: Micro 18" bolt??
I don't have a quill to try this, but how about adding lumenocks and a long expandable BH like the FOC...that added length might put you at 18". Short of that, you're best to follow the sage advice given already and get some Zombie Slayers.

18" zombie with 100gr heads will get you right around 370gr. My scale shows 372gr with that setup, but scales sometimes vary. Use a 125gr head and you should have just under 400gr.

Re: Micro 18" bolt??
I've got some 18 3/8" that I made up for my Matrix. They shoot great out of Colton's Micro. They are GTIII pro's, with brass insert up front and alum. nocks, fletched with Blazer's on an Arizona EZ Bolt fletcher. They shoot stupid great out of his Micro, if not as fast as some of the shorter lighter arrows.
In all fairness, everything I have tried in the Micro has shot well.
