The latest view of TenPoint's website for orders states "up to 1 week" to ship orders.
 
So , nothing from Ten Point ? Just website stores that want me to pay with PayPal ? I'll pass on that option . Franks does not list a M370 string nor Farmstead . Not much help there .
Smitty,
The string for the M370 is the same as the string for the Titan M1 and Turbo M1. Those three bows share the same front end design. You hare looking for HCA-11619-S.

What's your zip code?
 
Yep I know very well and I know how I deal with them…
Hey wwb, how about adding a "thumbs down" to the "like" selection, just in case an obnoxious jerkweed comes along lookin to start a crapstorm? Just sayin.....

10ptcrossbow is trying to help you maybe you should tone it down with the attitude.
Must be a matter of perception on your end , but I don't think I was out of line . 10point could've offered help right off the bat instead of insinuating I lacked knowledge . I did a web search and got nothing in WR strings , except for 60X and they shipped in a day . Now 10point gives me the actual part number I need , maybe he/she should've led with that ?

AHs come into every forum. He will either learn or leave. Hasn't been a member even a full day yet. :whistle:
Yup , only been here a day . How long do I have to be here before I can call a complete stranger an AH and the mods agree with it ? Stay classy Robert .
 
Members should realize that having Rep like 10pt is very valuable to this forum. What other manufacturers have a rep available to you at all times? You will get more from him if you ask for it.
Think about that.

Noted and I agree , but being my first day I didn't realize there was a rep . But I still think 10point could have initiated contact in a more professional manner . Also , still haven't found any in stock strings and cables from any of the sources 10point has listed or Ten Point themselves (still waiting for a reply from the Ten Point chat), so I feel I was right in saying there are none available . Farmstead has them , but for $90 for just the cables , I'll pass on that . Nothing on Amazon for cables .
 
I did an internet check, I believe yesterday to find information on the speed nocks.
It can increase the speed of the crossbow from 4 to 12 feet per second. It is a trial
and error where to place them in a group or a couple of groups. I can increase the
speed of the crossbow by advancing the cams so do not require speed nocks which
if the proper size and direction of the split is not installed properly, they can be a hazard.
One wants the split to face the shooter so if something goes wrong they fly forward.

As to double serving, my first layer is BCY .030 to the outer width of the string stop
rubbers if I am using them. Recently I am doing a test where I applied a second layer
of the BCY .030 just the width of the rail-stock. Now when that wears, that is all I have
to replace and not the full length if only using the first layer. This serving is very high quality.

As a further note, I have eliminated any Teflon strip or cable slides and served the cables
in that area with BCY .030 serving. I then lightly lube everything with Trident Silicone Grease.

Doing a lot of target shooting, a set of bow string and cables from 60X is $99.99 U.S. By the
time I pay for them, shipping, import fees and 35% currency exchange to bring the order into
Canada I am looking at $170 Canadian. Some orders I have to pay a further 13% sales tax.

Wishing you all the best.
Take care.

Bunny , I thought the speed nocks were covered with shrink wrap to keep them in place and not fly off , am I wrong ?

The picture I saw on the internet of the crossbow, yes, those were covered. Here is where the problem
arises. One has to keep shifting the nocks to get the proper setting. Too many nocks and the speed is
reduced.
The other problems are how does one get the shrink tubing over the bowstring loops with out going
over size and then heat control to shrink that tubing with out damaging the strands of the bow string.

For me, I can gain the extra speed by advancing the cams. I am not concerned about the axle to axle
measurement as that is just a guide line. Any string or cable change that has a different length, this
measurement can change. A shorter bowstring or cable is better than too long, which I have found.
The cable that crosses under the other one in the cable groove (slide) area has to be longer when the
crossbow is tuned or the cams will not be in time. Removing these cables with out adding or removing
twists and taking measurements is where one finds the difference. Re installing these same cables
but in a reverse position. 1/2 or full twists have to be added or removed to retime the cams.

Wishing you all the best.
Take care.
