Lee: Randy, aka 10 pt explained it all to me at one time, think there is like 4 or 5 holes you have to drill in the stock via a template and it will bolt right up. Not sure about where to put the gizmo that holds the claw though. It sits on a sheet metal lip up by the reciever under minor tension I think to keep it from flopping around while you aren't using it.

Do it to it: No, the claw is above where your hand hits the stock, IOW, it makes no difference if you use anAccudraw, Crankeroo, or Rope cocking device. It does look like it would interfer in photo's but doesn't in actuality.

when you purchase an accudraw, it will come with a template for the holes you need cut the cnter hole can be cut wit a 2 inch hole saw and arbor,, and the other holes can be drilled with a 9/32 and 5/8 drill bits now on the placement that I`m not sure of on an Excalibur but am sure you could make a best guess on that and you have to drill 6 holes total have youns purchased the Accudraw yet if not contact me via Pm I have one.. because I changed out my accudraw for and accudraw 50..

Lee, It can be done, but it takes some alteration of the trigger box as well I believe. Dan Miller is the best at it. Somebody here should have his number.
