Cocking Rope Rub

Post by okie143 »

I have read where others have found the more powerful crossbow models take the paint right off the frame.

This is a result of cocking and de-cocking my new 380 only two times.

The old rope burn...

If they molded all stocks in black first then hydro dipped it would eliminate the white showing through. They molded the black Micro stock in black so I know it can be done to all of them.. :mrgreen:

It happens no big deal . Out of 5 excalibur bows my micros the worse. After a while l didnt even notice it. Its like having a shiny bedliner in a truck and going to get patio blocks at home depot about 6 trips ......l hate show trucks as well as crossbows without scars both usless untill a litte of the new wore off. I wore out my ocd after being married ......

Waxing the cocking rope helps reduce friction too!
