Micro 335 Serving Killer

[chargeon]

Hello All! Micro's hitting dimes at 20 yards...don't really have the space to take longer shots at this time, but I'm pretty happy with the performance. I've been pretty liberal with the wax...putting more on every ten shots or so. The trigger still seems to be doing a number on the serving. Is this just an inevitability of Excaliburs or is there something that can be done that wouldn't void the warranty? How long should I expect a string to last? This issue seems to effect both the stock string and the custom flemish string I recently put on. Thanks for your help!

Too much wax...shouldn't need to apply it that often.

Is your serving fraying, separating or just flattening out? How many shots are you getting before you need to reserve?

Go to Boo's website and see instructions on polishing the latches. Very simple, and won't void the warranty. I would recommend doing this to every unit to extend serving life. I don't think the latches can ever be smooth enough, just follows Boo's instructions and you should see an improvement.

Another thing to try, flip your string over after every few shooting sessions to wear on either side of the serving evenly.

Hitting dimes at 20 yards? I tried that today but I was more like 1-1.5 inch groups at 20 yards. Are you sure???

Something wrong in your setup there...from a bench, some guys get that kind of accuracy at 100y.

Thanks for the info RUP! I'm getting some flattening, and the flattened areas eventually start to fray. I've only got about 20-30 shots on the new string, so I'm thinking there is a bit too much friction on the latches as you mentioned. I'll probably give Boo's technique a shot.

X2 with Derricks post. My arrows are spine indexed and weight matched. I will not shoot same spot at 40. Something is still amiss.
Did you check the trigger box screws under the stock?

Yeah, from a bag rest I'm pretty much hitting dead center on all of my aiming points. I'd definitely nick a dime if I actually had one up there. I'm using a 16.5" Black Eagle Zombie Slayer with a 100 grain point, 110 grain brass insert, and Quickspin vanes. Can't wait to see what I can do from longer distances!
