Still OLD SCHOOL:
Eclipse XT
20" Firebolts from Danny Miller
125 Grain NAP SpitFires, (Old stock)
NO illuminated nocks. My old eyes can still allow me to "savor" the shot when I pull the trigger and watch the Firebolt head for it's intended target. Dinner down. Yum - Yum

Bulldog 417 shooting 20" ZS shafts, 92gr inserts, Lumenoks, and Sevr 125gr, for 455gr total. Took 3 deer with this combo last fall, 35, 52, and 30 yds. All were clean pass through, including the biggest buck of my life with the arrow zipping through one elbow joint.

Micro 327 Short, shooting 16.5" Wyvern Dragon Claws (BEE shaft with 110gr insert), Lumenok, and 100gr Sevr for about 410gr total. Took 1 deer with this combo last fall, 12 yds facing nearly dead on. Sevr 1.5 entered base of the neck and exited just forward of the hip.

Good luck, but these posts are better seen on the Hunting Forum. You can start a whole new topic there. :thumbup:

My Axiom with a Boo string and cat whiskers and a leuipold Pig plex reticle. With the fire bolt arrows and Montec M3 125 gr heads make a total weight of 380. I sighted it in at 25 yds on the cross hairs. This makes the ring above the crosshairs dead on at 20 yds, and the ring below on at 30. The hash marks below the bottom ring are on at 32 and 34 yards. The top of the post is on at 36. Works perfect for any shot i'm willing to take.

First time poster, long time lurker.

I picked up a Bulldog 305 (limited run from Excalibur) a few weeks ago and am loving it.

I’m shooting the stock Quills with 100gr field points for a total of 350gr weight. I also shot it with 150gr points as well and found better accuracy to 30yards with the lighter arrows.
I have a few weeks of archery whitetail season left and am running 100gr x-act Broadheads for now, plan to keep my shots under 30y as I know it’s dialled nicely within that range.

I also have an Axiom SMF and have always shot 150gr points and 150gr bolt cutters through it with the stock fire bolts.

Previously I owned a Mag340 as well. Always shot stock quills with 150gr points/150gr boltcutters in that one.

Well I’m the new kid at school and I just got my first excal a couple of months ago, but fwiw-
Mag 340 I bought on another forum, it came with 2 quills and 2 bees ( haven’t shot the bees yet, I plan to remedy that today). I bought a dozen switchblade arrows built by SCCA (302gr) and so far this is a killer combo. I’m impressed with these arrows, I’m looking forward to stretching them on out and finding out how they work with broadheads.
