Burn Smell
When shooting bolt Its smells like something is burning. There is a slight build up of wax on top of rail.Should I remove the wax on the rail? I still harvested all the deer I shot.

Re: Burn Smell
It's normal, string rubbing on rail. Love the smell.

Re: Burn Smell
The wax on the rail will come off with a little silicone spray, or the edge of a credit card. I prefer to remove the build-up because grit sticks to it over time.

Re: Burn Smell
It was posted somewhere before that the burn smell is the aluminum nock rubbing on thr rail when the bow is fired. Nothing to be concerned about. Fire away.

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.

The Excals are so fast, that's the smell of the afterburners kicking in.
