The first target is a Field Logic Block 6X6 Archery Target and my backup is a homemade target consisting of carpet glue byproduct poured into a carboard box aprox 12X24X24" and weighing over 100#.

I've got two very dense foam targets, and many bolts are nock deep. It would not be pretty on high power, so I've only shot on low.

Found some Motec 100s that fly great and hit within one inch of field points at 20 yards. I can live with that. Moved my scope a little and I'm ready to deer hunt with it. I'll keep you folks posted.

Broadheads (both types) both hit high left, and field tips hit within a one inch group at 30, and I'd say 1.5-2" at 40. I don't have the broadheads with me right now for a pic, but Rage crossbow x are sold every where, just google. The Snuffer was an 1.25" wide vented three blade.

Well, mixed results with the Dragon Claw. It fires field points very well. I shot on low power and am estimating its firing the bolts over 400 fps. Same point of aim and it only drops 2.5" at 30, and 5" at 40, this was using my 20 yd hold. Broadheads were hitting 5-6" high left at 30, so now...

I really appreciate the links! I've really enjoyed you and Chris, and their valuable contributions through the years. Being a traditional bowhunter as well, I already have a great admiration for high FOC arrows. I do wonder if the higher point weights won't increase instability in a Dragon...

I killed a hog and two deer last year with my Dragon Claw shooting 250 grain slugs, and want to hunt with Air Venturi air bolts this year. I'm having very little luck finding information on suitable broadheads, and good scopes that have speed adjustable reticles. Any of you folks care to...

From what I understand, the earlier rifles had a .495 bore, but mine is less than a year old, and is supposed to be .4985. Mine won't shoot anything smaller than .501. These Lee bullets drop with the smallest band measuring something like .504 and the largest .517. They shoot well, but...

I'm not very experienced with casting, but my mentor is. We both like the Lee molds though. I cast these with a single cavity mold, and it's burdensome. I have only cast these twice so far, but have already bought a two cavity mold that I have yet to try. Both casting sessions I used a Lee...

Yes, I cast these from a Lee REAL 250 mold. The drop at 252 grains and I size them to .501. I was in a ladder stand.

Love my Dragon Claw! This island buck cam in chasing a doe and I shot him at 15 yards. He made one leap, then walked 10 yards, stood looking around for 2-3 seconds, then fell over dead. The 250 grain Lee REAL bullet did fantastic.

Great job. Try making a small noise to get them to stop. The idea is to make it just barely loud enough for them to hear it, so that they stop and listen.

Fun read!

Love my Seneca Dragon Claw. Plan on killing several hogs and deer with it in the next few months.

I love this rifle! I killed a 100# sow with it a few months ago. I used a 370 gn TC Maxi Ball, which hit her just behind the leg and exited just in front of the off side leg. It was shooting these heavy bullets 519 fps, and generating 221 ft/lbs of energy. I'd started shooting a Lee REAL...
