Well i took the xbow out today and started sightening it in for turkeys...the arrows flew great after some adjustments then my scope came loose, but you can see by the pictures the arrows flew awsome..First picture is before the adjust at 40 yards...then the second is when i adjusted the scope so the 2 inch predators vanes were great..!Thunderbolt125  Shot before scope adjustement  After scope adjustment |

You know it was funny, but as i was shooting at my spot...5 gobblers were sounding off..after 10:00am and they continued till after 11:00 at my spot..i knew that was a sign...the xbow shot great, but i was alittle PO'd when the scope came loose it's the second time in 2 weeks...so i'm loctiting the screws,i'm not dealing with this during Gobbler season..I'll be out the range tomorrow getting everything ready and tight..!!

Well i went to the range again today...Attached the Muzzy broadheads on my turkey bolts...i got the same results..the flew awsome were off alittle to the left about 1.5 inches ..but a few clicks and they were dead on..No wobbling, just perfect flight...so my test has concluded and i will be shooting the 2 inch Predators the rest of my life...and ordered 200 more for the future..Thunderbolt125

Yeah i did... I use it at work...so it was free...also had the trigger assembly screw backout..so that got some also..I think it's from all the vibrations...these barnetts are good xbows, just vibrate alot...from the 3 i've had...Thunderbolt125
