Wow! I thought I had seen most everything, but then I came across a YouTube video where a guy slides his bolt into the cocked Matrix 380 while looking down the rail from the front. You have to see it to believe it.

Re: How not to load a crossbow!
Yes, 2 days ago I watched a demonstration of a guy changing his string on a micro...on Google.
It was all good, but the idiot did it all without placing the safety on SAFE.
He had both his arms and hands in the "Triangle of Pain" with no clue.
He did all of this with a homemade stringer made from a piece of cord he announced was good for 150#.........( But, in all honesty it looked bigger in diameter and heavier than that. )

It makes me wonder Why in the world would anyone load from the front end and not on top?Squirrel wrote:That video is scary. Imagine if it fires while he's loading it. Ouch

His unorthodox loading method aside he shot impressively tight groups for such a long range.
