Hi Medusa,
I think we are almost the only target shooters here.
I shoot with Border and Falco Carbon Aramid my braces are 9cm for Border and 8.2 for Falco, for give or thake more brace I twist the strings, but normally if you call the brand they can help you to define the correct brace and number of twists, or talk to John Clark from Contender crossobows, he know the best brace for Barnsdale.

Good luck.
And nice crossbow.

Thanks  MiGUEL yes I thought there might be a (times Table ) to work with Thanks Any way   . Are you coming to the World Champs In  Australia next week ?? For cross bows .  

[Miguel from Portugal]

No, unfortunatly it's to expensive from Portugal, it's around 1500€ flight and more 600€ for extra height to fly to Australia.
Next WC will be again in Europe, so... need to wait.

Best regards to Ausie shooters and friends.

Chris's biz has been hit hard by the new crossbow rules but despite that he is busy working on a few target bows as he has time. He shot a TAC and a Scorpyd at world championships and despite a broken string on Scorpyd from a dry fire placed in a division or two...

Crossbow sales are now limited to those who currently belong to shooting clubs and they cannot accept any NEW members. Did you order a bow?

Im waiting to see what he comes up with for a target Scorpyd trigger he was thinking of buildling. Of course I have my own interests in a target "bow" hehehe. All it takes is money.....
