Boo Said;

"[quote][It's not just the poundage it's were the poundage is (at the top of the cocking stroke). If I were to only buy one bow (get me the soap) then I would go to the 355. But a tiny recurve bow that spits out an arrow over 300 ft/sec would have a high cool factor!/quote]

I totally agree... Just one heck of a market for it. for a small, lite, fast crossbow, and Excal can do it better than anybody in the market. "all things in life change". This new venture by Excalibut is to be commended as a step into the future of crossbows, with the reputation and proven enginnering and quality for which it has gained the respect of its owners and Dealers.

I liked the way Bill T. left the door WIDE open regarding the 400 fps bow. It's for sure that more than 1 bow is in the future. Maybe a "SUPER VIXEN for Vixenmaster and I.

Guess I am going to have to sell my 16ga. double this year!

Do you know when the 18" diablo bolts are going to be available for sale? I bought the Matrix 355 (incredible piece of machinery by the way). But am having issues trying to find replacement bolts. It doesn't seem like anyone is carrying them yet, besides what come with the package.

If you have a dremel tool, and an arrow squaring device, you could probably buy whatever bolts you want and cut 'em down to size.

I'm fairly new to crossbow hunting, I asked the local shop about doing just that, and they said that the composition of the diablo bolt might be different because of it's size. Do you think it would be okay to cut down another carbon fibre bolt and do that? Like say one of the firebolt arrows.
