[QUOTE="rem270, post: 4288114, member: 1700"] Had a pretty rough couple of weeks with my xbow. Bought a Barnett Raptor in November last yr on a black Fri deal. Sighted it in on Christmas Eve and haven't shot it since til a couple of weeks ago. I pulled a brand new bolt of the box and put a field tip on it. First shot the bolt went halfway to the target and the string popped off the cams. I thought it was the xbow's fault. Took it in and had it fixed. Got it back and was still dead on at 40 and never had to re sight it. That time i used a different bolt. The next day i grabbed the same bolt that i had used when it popped off the cam. First shot and string snaps into. I was pissed to say the least. Even more mad i didn't check the bolt after the 1st time it happened to me. Got to looking at the bolt and my half moon nock was turned the wrong way. Never would've thought that could cause so much damage but it did. That bolt got thrown away, new string on the xbow and I'm back to dead on at 40 with my first reticle and shooting 100 yards with the last. Don't do what I did! Check them bolts. [/QUOTE]
