There used to be a guy from Houston that met up with us (from Ontario) and mutual friends in Fairview Alberta to go on a mulie/moose/elk hunt. Man you are way up there. Awsome hunting and fishing I hear. Is Mackenzie on the Yelllow Head route? I don't remember seeing Mackenzie when I drove to Prince Rupert.

i use my top for 10 second for 20 third for 30. I've never used any others besides the top 3. I set my max at 30yd. Keep in mind i have it on a horton supermag shooting 250fps. I'm buying a new horton here in a few weeks so im sure all of that will change.

i have the top set at 15yrd. my bow shoots pretty level at 25 to 30 from the same cross hair. at 50yrds. a full body deer target fits between the top and next line and hits dead center. i shoot fixed blade muzzy 125gr. broad heads also. my bow is an older Horton Legend SL. i bought it new in 1999. Still a great shooting bow and i have no plans on replacing it anytime soon.

Hey deerslayer, Sounds like you are in the same boat is was in last summer. I had an old suppermag that I shot for 13 years and it never let me down. Got a new horton supermax 175 and love it and now my dad has my supermag for when we go out. How old is you supermag and what are you thinking of buying?

RE: horton multirange scope
 
Hotburn i have no clue as to what year my supermag is. I got is refurbished in a drawing from buckmasters where they gave away crossbows to disabled hunters. I am not sure exactaly what i am going to buy. I was eyeing up that team realtree 175 but green pea had some bad luck with that so i dont know. My funds right now are kind of limited and i dont want to spend much more than 500 on one. I would like to get one over or around 300fps and it deff has to have the dial a range. My supermag doesnt have the dial a range and its a total pain in the butt to sight in with broadheads. I cant even use the same crosshairs i used with field points. It takes like 30shots to get the broadheads sighted in and tears my target all to heck. I think its time for a upgrade.

deerslayer , you should be able to get a nice set up for that kind of cash. stick with the Horton's and you won't be disappointed, probably will be able to swing a cocking device if you want one too. [/align]

RE: horton multirange scope
 
teamster i already have the crank cocking aid from my supermag all i have to do is buy a new bracket for like $25 so ill save some cash there. I might even steal the scope offa my supermag depending what for sights will be on the new one i get.

awshucks i doubt it would make any difference. I tried both expandables and fixed blades ranging from muzzy,innerloc,thunderheads,wasp jackhammers, spitfires, and my current choice wasphammer sst 100gr. None of the broadheads flew very good i just could not get the scope to adjust at all. the wasp hammer sst's adjusted the best and they are one nasty head. No complaints at al with em very strong.
