[QUOTE="jon.henry755, post: 623375, member: 29115"] Hi Twanger, There's a single o-ring that's made just for the torque of these newer crossbows and it's just heavier duty than the old ones. They seem to work fine and would be less bulky for your situation. i also know that the Spitfire 85's or 100's made for crossbows and they definitely won't open before hitting their target. Super 91 has extensive live field testing on the Spitfires. This year alone he took at least 7 deer with the 85's. They shoot exactly the same as your 85 grain field points. No adjustments needed at all. When building new arrows from shafts, I would strongly suggest changing your nocks to "Firenock D's" from Firenock.com. I would also suggest not building anymore arrows unless you buy and install "Carbon Express Bulldog Nock Collars" Size CXL250. These collars will give the back end of your arrows the strength and toughness needed to withstand a lot of abuse. They are what is needed to keep the arrow shafts in perfect roundness, otherwise they quickly get warped into an oval shape. I stay with the PSE Dynavane 3-D low profile vanes because they work! I do however switch up the vane colors to my own liking. I often use two upper white vanes and two lower of another color. If using the Bulldog Nock Collars, they are applied using a standard slow setting Epoxy Cement. You can easily use more or less Epoxy to balance the weight of each arrow shaft down to the 100th of a grain, if you're careful. This is the easiest way to perform the final weight balancing on a batch of shafts. Always find your heaviest arrow in the group and install the collar on it first. Add the least amount of glue possible and insert the nock immediately. Whatever the finished weight of this arrow comes out to be when you weigh the arrow all others will be brought to this exact weight, so write it down for each successive arrow yo build.
