Ditto's on call Barnett. I haven't seen the pics of your bow, but would be willing to bet the scope mount got bent.

I forgot to add something. You don't want to use a scope that has to be adjusted to any extreme.

I know that Beman makes a 22" crossbow arrow called the Thunderbolt. Never used it though, as I shoot 20" GTs.

As for a good field point target, I've had the same Delta Dead Stop 5000 bag target for several years. The only thing I've had to do was change the outer cover on it. The bag and cover can be gotten from Cabelas. It handles my Excalibur shooting approx. 330 fps without any problems.

Thanks for all of Your advice.
I do not have the ability to send pictures yet. It is the package deal with scope, bases and rings. The bow is supposed to shoot about 345 FPS. The windageon the Barnett ison the money at 25 Yds but about 5 inches high. I backed up to40 yards and it is on the money. First I am going to test it out of an 18 foot tree stand just in case it makes a difference. If that does not help then I am going to switch the mounts front to back and back to front before I go any further.More testing is in line. I hate when that happens. The feed bages filled with towels works great.
Thanks again.

I know its no fun to shoot if you can't spend a lot of money on a target but I've tried a lot, pulled my guts out getting the arrows out, had inserts and target and broadheads stay in them and I always go back to my box of rags, pull your target arrows out with 2 fingers and you can go thru the top and work the broadheads out easy.
