Default Excal Bolts???

I have the excal exocet 200.. I know it says to shoot 22XX bolts.. But i was wondering.. COuld I shoot 23XX... say 2315's? Reason I ask is I have almost 2 doz arrows sitting around left over from when I switched to Goldtips..

Or am I just asking for trouble using the little larger diameter bolt?

When you go too small or too big it messes up yer string matching up with rear nok. Too low or high on flat nok will makearrow kickup or down pushing arrow down the rail.[&o]
