I have a dozen Executioner Bolts which are 15.5 inches. Thoughts on using with a Matrix 330?

I dont think that will be a problem.
I shoot 16 inch out of mine same arrows as my micro they shoot great.
Just make sure you remove arrow before decocking.

I think you may be right at or maybe slightly below a safe limit... I usually shoot 17" Zombie Slayers but also have and shoot Full Metal Jackets cut to 16 1/2" in my 355 which has a slightly longer rail than your 330. They shoot just fine and are very accutate, while in the case of the FMJ's keeping the overall shaft weight near 400 gn. with a good broadhead.

If you do in fact choose to use these, (?) and find they allow your foot into the sturrip when set up with broadheads while loaded

? Be sure they are removed before unstringing the bow by hand. Better safe than sorry for sure.

As long as the total arrow weight isn't below the recommended weight and they fly true from your bow I think you should be good to go.

I am shooting 15" out of my 335 and my 355 at just over 400gr's they shoot great even at 50yds

I keep my arrows long enough so that I cannot get my foot into the stirrup with an arrow loaded. I heard a couple horror stories when I first joined here and decided I would play it safe

Yep, 17" in both the 330, and 355 Matrix. It's nice to have one arrow box in the truck!
