There are some pretty crazy crossbows out these days. The Ravin 500 is pretty slim and goes 500 FPS.
Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
My shoulder is pooched also.
Looks like an Excalibur, mine is pinpoint accurate, at 50yd
I’ve robin hooded several bolts in my broad head block.
Now I have 5 different targets on my block.
Have fun with it, and put some meat in the freezer.
which Excalibur is that. Looking at getting one soon either the new Micro 380 or the suppressor 400. By the case you have I would assume it’s one of the takedown models.
im currently shooting a older carbon matrix crossbow that shoots like 360ish ft/second. Looking at getting a new one and using the CM as a back up.
my cousin has the Ravin R29 and it shoots 450ft/s. It’s only like 8” wide. Awesome now but I can buy 3 excals for the price of the ravin.

Any Excalibur is an excellent choice my Friend!
The Micro 340 Take Down has a heck of a lot of positive reviews!
I suggest those deer better start shaking in their boots.
As noted, run with .001 Zombie Slayers and you will not ever want to shoot at the same bullseye!
Looking forward to your reviews as you shoot, and some fine tales of hunting success down the road...
Congrats!!
Beyond expense, there are other associated concerns with wheel bows.
They can and do get out of tune somewhat easily. Rectifying that is either take it to the bow shop, or have your own bow press and knowledge to deal with it. Problematic if in season...
The recurves are basically indestructible, accurate as hell, and will give almost any wheel bow a good run for the money to boot.
Easy to work on yourself if ever required, including 5 minute string change outs in the field.
To top that all off, they offer THE Best Warranty in the business bar none.
You likely won't need that, but comforting to know it is there,
Cheers,

Guess he got to Know me
I have an Excalibur Micro 355. I would not say that Excalibur are indestructible because they are not as I had a limb delaminate as a was attempting to cock it. Before you say it, no, I did not have a dry-fire. I am well aware of that since I have been shooting bow for a very long time. And because the bolt has a flat base and not a nock, one has be be a little more cognizant of seating the bolt and the retainer keeping pressure on the bolt so that it does not move.
However, that said, I strongly recommend Excalibur. When I had the limb failure, I sent an email off to Excalibur with photos of the limb included. Hardly an time passed and I received an email back saying that the limb was warrantied and requesting my shipping address. Two days later, a matched pair of limbs were at my door. You cannot be more than super pleased with that kind of response.
And as IronNoggin noted, compound apparatus' go out of time as the string stretches and need more elaborate devices to bring things back in order. Everything you need to tune your Excalibur compound bow can nicely fit in your possibles bag with room left over.

Its the Micro 340 TD
Nice.....you'll have fun. I have a Matrix 380 and an older Exocet 200 and the accuracy is awesome. I like the Micro & TD models but not sure i can justify another one.
Using Zombie Slayers too with Lumenoks - word of advise is to start looking for some arrows now as they've been fairly scarce every time i've looked for them lately.
anyone know where to get replacement string for the Exaliber limb xbows???,,,,im in kamloops and cant find anywhere with them
Aim small,,miss small
