Started looking at crossbows again and decided to pick up a Axiom. Going this weekend to sight in the scope and see how it shoots. I've been shooting a recurve and compound bow for a few years and really enjoy it. I'm very impressed with the fit and finish of the bow.

Welcome to the nation and congrats on your Axiom. Are you going to use boltcutters with it?

I primarily do target shooting so I will probably stick with the field tips. Hopefully Saturday we will have some nice weather so I can get it sighted in. I still need to pickup a case just can't decide where or which one. Anyone have a suggestion on making sure the crosshairs in the scope are level with the bow? I used a level but I think there has to be a better more accurate way.
