If you own a Bitz jig and found that you nock tool is loose I found a product that should do the job very well. I just bought a used jig today and will be ordering one of these kits for my self as it increases accuracy. You will need to page about 1/2 way down the page. Here's a link,,,

I've read Bitzenburger's ads... they say they do Xbows. Someone said when doing Xbows, Bitzen has a nock problem... dunno, being new to all this, but that's what I've heard.

Yes, Moon said the crossbow nock reciever is too loose. This set up fixes that problem as well as aligns the arrow more accurately!!

UL, Yes this set up will do crossbow arrows as well.

Update
Not sure after talking to him today. See my latest post!!

Well, I ordered my kit today from them and was talking to them about crossbow arrows. His adaptor rings DO Not Fit crossbow arrows from what I understand?? What you need to do is take a arrow insert and make it fit the adaptor ring. We will see when I get it. I will post one way or the other on it.

You can also use a 2115 insert

Here are a few pics of the Zenith kit. For crossbow arrows you do not use the steel end plate that comes with the kit. Now the Zenith kit does not come with a bushing for the crossbow arrows. But what you can do is use a piece of 1916 or simular arrow and hot melt glue it on to there bushings to make the correct size for crossbow arrows or make a insert that bolts in to the main zenith hub like BD1 did above. Bottom pic is a 1916 slide inside of a GT2 arrow.Attached File  DSC01020.JPG   89.79K   1 downloadsAttached File  DSC01021.JPG   64.78K   1 downloadsAttached File  DSC01026.JPG   80.15K   0 downloads

I got the ideal and ordered it from H&S archer and he set me up with the inserts for lazer 2 and aramid shaft.  Works great and improved my accuracy on my strykeforce and strykezone 380.
