Shooting Ramcat threw micro 355

Post by Cker_of_Redmist »

I just measured the clearance on my Micro and it's a 11/16. So around 1 3/8 total. Will Ramcat 100 clear the stirrup. If any could check I would appreciate it. A pic would be great. Thanks!

I am using ramcat with my Micro 335 and they clear the stirrup no problem. Unless they change the stirrup on the 355, it should also fit.

Great to hear! The stirrup is the same. I swear by QAD Exodus but want to give Ramcats a try. Thank you!

I also use Ramcats from my 335 and my 380... They clear the stirrup, however if you wrap your stirrup you definitely need to check the clearance. I wrap all my stirrups but then cut out a swath in the wrap so that there is no chance of snagging the stirrup.

I wrap mine as well. I leave a 2 inch gap in middle for clearance. Thanks for the help!

I shoot both the 100 and 125 gr. RamCat exclusively with my micro no issues and they fly great and blow thru everything. 8)

What he said!! But to be fair when I build arrows next time I will orient the inserts so 1 blade is up and the other two towards the stirrup are out at an angle because the clearance is tight.....but it does clear.

Actually, the Ramcats do have a rubber O ring...which will allow for the blade orientation of your choice... :)

I like them screwed down tight. That O-ring is to help with alignment. It does not matter too much as they clear the stirrup in any orientation. I was just saying that when I make new arrows I will just take that next step when I put the inserts in.

You wont be disappointed in all the years I have bow hunted I have never shot a BH that flew any better and just has a crazy impact on whitetails not to mention what it did to my Elk . :D amazing penetration! 8) I'm not sure why but they seem to burst oversized holes in and out. Good luck and have fun

Has anyone tried these with a Dr Stirrup? Do they clear?

Thank you.

Good question...I want one of those stirrups as well and would like to try the Ramcats.

Have to wait and see I guess...
