Didn't need another crossbow but......

Post by Carnivorous »

Definitely didn't need another crossbow but this one was on our local buy and sell for a ridiculous low price so I snagged it... lol

Guy bought it new and used it for one Moose hunt then hung it up and it shows... l

Easy to cock,very well balanced and incredibly accurate.

Not sure why excalibur stopped making these but it's a keeper! :)

I added my huskemaw scope and adjustable cheek piece that was on my micro...

Nice looking rig!! :thumbup:

Norm, you can wrap the cheek rests with vinyl wrap. Comes in all colors and all camos. Pretty easy to do w a hair dryer/ heat gun.😁

I've been shopping wraps lately and found everything color under the sun out there. Cool way to customize our stuff!

I used basically same stuff (except it was Kryptek Banshee pattern) on my 308 Short Banshee. Cut it a little oversized, used a blowdryer after sticking it on to get it to really conform well, especially over the screw heads, and then trimmed it off at the outside edge with a razor blade.

Also had similar success with camouflage duct tape on my Realtree camo'd Excals.

I actually bought it with the intention of flipping it. Unfortunately I shot it a few times and don't think I can sell it now... :)
