Default Crossbow bolt help

Hey everyone I just bought a barnett jackal and some 18 inch barnett aluminum bolts. Do you guys think they're too light or will they be fine? Thanks

According to Barnett's FAQ section, should weigh 454 grains. That includes the carbon shaft & whatever sort of broadhead you use.

Same hing I have it is a little louder than ohers but hey for the price you can't complain. And aluminum bolts bend carbon are better but yeah they will do fine. And this jackel is very uncomfortable and awkward to carry on a sling with that pistol grip on it and that weird shaped stock
