Very nice. I'm looking at getting a new matrix for Christmas for myself. Still deciding between 380 and 355

Re: 355 question
I have about 400 shots through my 380 with the stock string and serving. I rotate the string about every 50 shots or so and there's still plenty of life left in it. Serving wear is surprisingly minimal with the sharp angle and speed it has to endure. I did polish the latches.

Re: 355 question
I put a Boo string with Whiskers on the Matrix 380 before I ever shot it.
Ran somewhere around 350 shots on it, and then switched the trigger out to Trigger Tech's Hunting Trigger.
Same string, now over 850 shots and counting. Just now beginning to see a little signs of stress on the serving, but still VERY Serviceable.
Have rotated the string about every 100 shots or so.
I am Mightily Impressed with how well that string is holding up!
Also Damn Impressed by the Matrix 380 overall! Awesome Power, Incredible Accuracy, and all in a rather petite package!! Ain't going to be replacing Her any time soon that is For Sure!!
Cheers,
