Appreciate your help fellas,
Long-time bowhunter.
Will always prefer compound over x, but either hunting a field (range) or bad shoulder might cause me to occasionally use the xbow.
Also, I like introducing folks to archery/hunting, and it's a good/easier segway to get them in the treestand bowhunting.
I picked up a Wicked Ridge Rampage XS. (rated up to 390fps)
It's loud.
Some shots feel insanely accurate.
Some shots seem off.
1) If I'm using a sled or rest and not firmly seating the butt/stock (in my shoulder), will the "looseness" of the release affect accuracy?
2) What's the best-used practices for dampening the noise these things generate?
3) If anyone has this particular model, how far out do you feel it can consistently shoot accurately?
4) Do you have any other suggestions or pitfalls you can share?
Thanks!
