Congratulations on the bow!!! Love my 355!!! I also shoot 20" out of mine. We have four Excaliburs and didn't want different size arrows. If you have any questions, the people on here are great and have tons of knowledge. Good luck and keep us posted. :D

Can't wait until you give us your first report after you sling some arrows down range. Welcome to the forum. And one GREAT crossbow.....
Great choice, IMO . Bubba's question is really great advice. I'd get what he asked if you didn't already. Many of us also like the Trigger Tech triggers. There's just no end to just how much you can spend.
SEW roger on the TTT.. and I don't know as much as some or most of you guys. Same with my firearms I wanted to test out the factory trigger, now I am not opposed and been know to do alittle tweaking if needed. But out of the box this first season I will learn the factory XCAL trigger. Season is getting close. Maybe do a drop in in the spring/summer... You recommend a single stage or two I am familiar with both..on firearms and have both on handguns and rifles. I have a late 70-early 80s remmie 700/06 that is like glass..did a polish job an that about it...Got an S&W MP-15 vortec. with Timney trigger..and few others that have after market triggers. I don't do any competition shooting, its all hunting or home "defense" plinking type stuff. You know really just shooting at boxes and stuff........no real "home defense" :wink:

Congrats on your purchase, the 355 is an awesome crossbow I'm sure you'll love it. Practice a lot and keep the fingers and thumbs away from the rail.

I'm sure you're gonna love it.

Welcome to the forum. :D As said, watch those digits around the triangle of pain. Seems to happen more to the rifle hunters as they are used to gripping the whole fore stock.
