micro Axe arrow setup question

Post by confederate »

Hey guys, My son just bought his first crossbow, the new Axe and im helping him get it set up. Since I shoot a matrix and haven't got my first Micro yet, I have a question. If I have Zombie Slayers cut to 15 inches with a 110 grain insert shooting 100 grain heads what will they weigh and how will they shoot? I really don't like the arrow out past the stirrup.
Thanks

If using factory fletched bolts 18" cut down 3" to make a 15" Shaft: 372.5gr

Shaft-9.1gr x15 = 136.5gr
Fletching- 6gr x3 = 18gr
Black Eagle Nock plastic = 8gr
Insert = 110gr
Head = 100gr
Total = 372.5gr
