Arrows Adding Weight
After reading the site over acrossed the pond! I went to back room and tried to put a 2013 inside one of of my 2213's. Nice snug fit, now i have an arrow that has thickness of .026! That should be very stiff and good heavy wt. fer penetraion, and they said it really puts the quiet on string vibes and limbs. I shall try this soon.

DNK, that site told me sorry charlie no gotta match
]I think i will be able to put 21" 2013 shaft inside the 2213 arrow then cut off a2213 insert and glue it in the end fer a flat nok. Just a rough guess in total wt. about 500grs.

RE: Arrows Adding Weight
I cleaned up all 9 2013's, might get to cut them off tomorrow after i make a transport run. Didn't get to it today. Had a man come over wanting to shoot the Excal. So i showed him and answered his ?'s and he shot. He was thinking of getting a Phoenix, after shooting the Exocet 200. I think he will get one them.

RE: Arrows Adding Weight
I am looking fer a 2016 arrow or shaft to slide inside my 2216's. Then weigh it on scale see if it gets up around the 600gr. mark. Just to see how quiet it is.

RE: Arrows Adding Weight
how much of a drop difference is there between those and the lighter weight arrows?
after I posted that last comment I went out and grabbed a bare fishing arrow(32" solid fiberglass, no point or fletching) and it weighed 1195gr which is 37.3gr/inch, so cut down to 20" it should weigh around 746gr
they're the same dia asa 20/64" arrow so they're somewhat smaller than the 22/64" arrows used for crossbows andeven smallerthan the 21/64" arrows that I hear of some people using, I cant tell for positive sure but they also dont seem to be a stiff splined as regular fiberglass crossbow arrows
I wonder how they would fly out of a crossbow
