popping sound
I had a Matrix 355 for a couples years that making a popping, cracking sound when cocking, maybe the last inch or 2. No problems otherwise, anyone have an idea what's making the sound?
Re: popping sound
If you are using a C2 crank to cock it then it is the cord slipping off its self that is making the noise and waxing it will probably help. If no crank I have no idea.

Re: popping sound
Matrix line makes that noise when one of the two riser bolts are loose.

I'm rope cocking, Bolts on riser seem tight. I may loosen them and retighten, should I tighten one up first like some rifle stocks(which one first) or just tighten them up together?

Re: popping sound
Check the screws that hold the trigger to the mainframe as well as the screws that hold the stock to the mainframe.

Re: popping sound
I cleaned up a 380 for a friend after last season. When cocking it, the last couple inches, it would pop a bit. When I started investigating, the rear riser bolt appeared tight, but it had developed some corrosion and was only tight against that. I loosened them, cleaned them out and retightened them and the poping sound went away.
Doesn't matter what order.
Sounds to me like something on the bow is loose.
