It's a great bow. For the one bow person, you cannot go wrong. Easy to cock, easy on the string, easy on the target, easier to get shooting well and way more power than you need to zip through a whitetail.

A fully dressed up M330 might be my favourite all-around crossbow. Very dependable.

Best handling and holding of the Matrix series for me. like was said, easy on everything from the pocket book to the serving and target, but hard on arrows,,, if you shoot at the same place twice!
This is 2 shots with the 16.5" 390 grain Spynal Tapps, drilled the new Hot Shot target at 50 yards, it was the last time I aimed at the same spot twice,,,,,

It is reliable and very consistent to as this 25 yard target shows. This was trhe only arrows I tried in it.

Both these targets were the first time, out after zeroing the scope, I decided not to waste my time trying anything else.

I think the 330, and 355 are their best offerings. The Matrix 330 is the Vortex in a smaller package, and quickly becoming my favorite crossbow!

I just got home from the Cabelas in Tulatin Ore ( just south of Portland )... I saw they had three 330's on the rack on sale and priced at $650 for the lite package. :shock: :wink:

Good luck...the ph # is 1-503-822-2000.....Maybe they would ship you one.... The 330's have definately proven to be a reliable, trouble free Excal. modle capable of taking down anything on 4 legs on this continent. :wink:
