    Brakes on a hunting gun

    I've hunted Elk with a Browning 300win mag for 15years using the Browning Boss muzzle brake. I have only shot it once without hearing protection and I had ringing in my ears for months afterwards. I wear electronic earmuffs while hunting. If you hunt with a guide they should notice the...

    Broadheads for the Tac 15

    I've been using the G5 T3 crossbow mechanical broadhead with great success. It flies true and have not had any problem with them opening in flight.

    need to accesorize my elite

    To quiet down the hammer stop pin I did the following: 1st remove the pin partway and then slide some rubber peep tubing over it. You only need about 3/4" of tubing. Then put the pin back in place. (This pin may be tapered and only slide out one way !!!) Next I took a piece of moleskin...

    Portable bow press

    My mistake. That is a shame the Elite does not allow it as it makes changing strings/tuning at home much cheaper. Sorry Mike K/NJ

    Portable bow press

    I've not needed a bowpress. I am able to back out the limb screws enough to loosen the cables and replace them. (Instructions were in the manual)

    need to accesorize my elite

    Mortis - It takes a little getting used too. I've had my Tac 15 for a few years now (Pre-elite) and it was noisy at first. There are some good articles on how to reduce the sound in this forum. But limbsavers and padding the pin that stops the hammer are the 1st things that will help...

    String/Cable Replacement frequency

    Hi all - What is the recommended time to change out the string/cables on the Tac 15 ? I received my Tac for X-mas 2011 and have changed them once myself and another time when I received new front end from a limb separation. I have heard that the recommended time was 100 shots, but that...

    scopes

    I would think any good quality scope would work. I did not have problems with the original scope keeping position although I did have problems with the battery/illumination(Had PSE replace the 1st scope). If you are using the HHA Optimizer than a single illuminated recticle with 1-5 or 3-9...

    Which broadhead for Tac15?

    I too had trouble grouping the Phat heads. I ended up with the G5 Montec broadheads. They have been grouping well for me.

    trigger upgrade for TAC 15i

    Scroll throught the posts. There was a whole post on installing an aftermarket 3# Timney trigger. I installed one last year and like it. The factory trigger was crisp, but was too heavy for my taste.

    Tac 15i cranking issues and bolt turning out

    Bowgadget - I had one of the bolts come loose on me as well(posted about it this time last year). I tried to keep an eye on it, but it happened again about a week later. About 2 weeks after that the opposite side bolt sheared off (I am assuming it was because of the extra torq that bolt...

    Tac15i accuracy and consistancy problems

    PURVIS6 - I've lived your pain. Last fall I had the same thing happen to me. The consistancy with the Tac-15i was not there !! I cannot place an exact fix that happened, but I am finally getting solid 2" groups to 60yds and 3-4" groups at 90yds. There was a time when I was getting tight...
