Those with both the 380 and 400-Arra Query

[steven in England]

I also own the M380, M405, BD400 and agree with everything Steve has said. For me it makes more sense to stick with 18inch zombies and shoot the same bolt off all three bows rather than having different bolts for different bows. There is no doubt the BD400 would be a good fit with 19 -20 inch bolts.
I personally think the M405 was pulled out of production too soon and think it would have been fine with the modified riser and limbs. But that is just my opinion and I respect Excaliburs decision to pull it. In a weird sort of way the M405 is easier to cock than the BD400 due to the shorter power stroke. However, I have many other bows including the Micro, M310 and many of the older style bows and if I had to sell all my bows and only keep one it would be the BD400. For me the BD400 doe not excel in any one area it is just very very good in all the areas that I personally look for in a bow.

You just can't wait, can you??
Me either.

Might bring the Fulmine Grande up to Maine on vacation with me....kind of a "get to know each other" vacation!

I'm thinking the same arrows could and would be used on both!

Maybe come up to my Maine deer camp in November and break it in on a monster buck!

....be careful what you offer....you might just have a visitor up there....first, because Maine is my second home, second because that Buck is what we call in the I-talian neighborhood a "BFB" (figure that out yourself ) and thirdly to "break bread" and have the opportunity to hunt with a fellow Excal owner and forum member....thanks!

Did you weigh that deer? I noticed you gutted the deer before the pictures were taken.

That deer was taken too far from a meat pole to weigh whole. It would have been to heavy for the canoe!
