Sorry if this is the wrong forum, I don't really know where to post it. I got a nice Excalibur Axiom crossbow on Fleabay, supposed to be delivered this week. I have some experience with crossbows, currently have a cheapie recurve that is surprisingly accurate out to 25 yards. If the Axiom extends my effective range to 40 yards or so I'll be happy. The seller says that the only thing wrong with it is the original string is getting worn and could stand replacement.
So, anybody have experience with these? My understanding is that most of the older Excaliburs (Axiom, Vixen, Ibex, etc.) were basically the same bow with different stocks and cosmetic features. Any recommendation for bolts and broadheads? I'm thinking that for a crossbow the heavier broadheads and stiffer bolts would be the way to go.
