Excalibur Crossbow?

Anybody have experience with their Micro series? Specifically looking at the Micro 340 TD.

I have a couple Excalibur Cross bows. I do have the 335 micro Nightmare and it’s been an excellent cross bow. I am partial to recurves. Naturally any of the micro series will kill any big game in North America. I have two Excal Suppressors, love em, nice and quiet. https://www.excaliburcrossbow.com/crossbows/microsuppressor/

I finally found a 340TD in stock in SC. I've just barely had time to sight it in at 20 yards. I wanted a recurve just for the simplicity, and the TD's ability to pack down was a plus.

You will reeeeeeally like the accuracy, I have a 20 yd range in my basement. And the simplicity of a recurve is great.I have never been a fan of then compound cross bows, one issue afield and well it could mean hunts over. I have carried and extra string and never needed it. You will also really like the de-cocking feature.

Congrats on the TD, post up a pic when you have time.

Are you using the hand crank cocker? I am, and have yet to try the rope cocker. I'll be 61 next week, and always been on the skinny side, not sure that I could use the rope. I wouldn't hunt with the crank attached, but it's easy to practice with it attached. Doesn't get in the way if the handle is off.

I am also 61 and I use the rope. I just go slow and steady and it works just fine. I really enjoy hunting with the Excals. Quiet and very lethal. Most deer after a heart lung shot usually drop at 35-45 yards. Quick and clean.

I haven't deer hunted in years, but plan to pick it up again. We have a 10pt roaming our property, and there's 1400 acres of gameland
within walking distance of our place in SC.

I sent you a PM.

Very nice set up. Does it come with the case?

Cabelas has it as a package with the case. I got this one at a bow/gun shop in SC that just happened to have the case and the crank cocker in stock.
The case has WAY more volume and pockets than needed, but I suppose that's a plus.

Yes

Yes

Nice..you will like that as well.

Actually just turned it on for the first time. I like to red/green options. Do you have target suggestions? Bought one (yellow jacket I think) but would like a few to spread out. Nice to have projectiles that are reusable!

Naturally anything rated for crossbow. I have a few in my basement but would have to check.
