I believe new Excals come with Excel strings now, but most dealers will install the FFF string for you. You loose a few fps with excel string.

I'm interested because I use a phoenix with an excellerant string and
have wondered if my dial in vari-zone scope setting is correct for what I shoot:
20" lazer II bolts with a 125 grain broadhead. Any help you can give
