Newbie Questions Matrix 380

Post by charlgen »

Im looking into purchising Matrix 380 first crossbow for me, i have few questions.

1. Is this cross bow easy to setup if your pretty handy?
2. Does the string come pre waxed?
3. Can I shoot 125 Rage 2 blade crossbow broadheads with the diablo arrows and do they shoot well?

Im sure ill have more questions soon

Thank you

Yup its fairly easy to set up, don't knowed about string bein waxed. I guess the arrows n rage BH's can be used wid decent accuracy

Good questions, and positive to all of them.

Found a review about M. 380, hope that would help

Excalibur is the best recurve crossbow I ever tested.
Thanks for mentioning my blog on Excalibur's Facebook Page the other day. And hope I could add some value here to the community. :)

I ordered my Matrix 380 through my local archery shop and stopped by just as the UPS man made his delivery that day. I ended up putting everything together myself even though I thought that was kinda BS that the shop owner didn't offer to do it for me.

Everything went together in no time and I was shooting it very fast!

I personally use the HellRazor broadheads and have already got a nice buck with mine!

set is easy just make sure all scope screws are tight ,but i don't know how well the 125 gr broadheads will fly.the diablo bolts are designed for the matrix and come with 150gr field points.changing the weight of bolt/arrow will throw off the drop compinstating rectricle on the scope .i didn't know that rage made a 125 gr crossbow broadhead

what i was trying to say is that the diablo bolt is designed for the matrix its shorter @18" and balanced for 150 gr field point or broadhead.changing the weight will affect how the shorter bolt will fly especially with a broadhead maybe not at 20yrds but beyond 30yrds.i mean there are guys that cut bolts/arrows down to 16"and try them but don't think they are bragging about there accuracy.excalibur has done there research and testing there is a reason why they are using 18" bolts with 150gr points
