20" vs 22"
All the time I have had my XBpw I have shot 20" bolts, are the 22" for other mfgs Xbows or are they a preference of each individual.

They are what is recommended by mfgrs for their crossbow.My Barnett
took 22"my Parkers took 20" My Ten Point takes 20" arrows you should shoot what is recommended in your manual.Shot 22" out of my Parkers worked great,guess you can try different things just be careful!:) |

RE: 20" vs 22"
I'm not sure but it may have to do with spline... the longer the arrow the less "stiff" its going to be, and with the high poundage of a crossbow it may have a big impact, however the longer it is the more stable it is, so I have no idea...
I've wondered about different crossbow arrow lengths myself, in fact when I finally get a good "main" setup figured out so I can relax a little I plan on experimenting some with different arrow lengths/sizes just tosee what I come up with |
RE: 20" vs 22"
I was told by Excal that there was no advantage either way. I've would have thought that the longer would give better penetration and accuracy(through better steering). But apparently not.
