I got my Mission MXB crossbow dialed in today at 20-50 yards. However, my Magnus Stinger Buzzcut broadheads are hitting lower. At 20 yards they are good but they are 2" low at 30, 4" low at 40 and 6" low at 50 yards. The field tips and broadheads are the same 100 grain weight. I am assuming just maybe they length of the broadhead is causing the dip? The windage left to right is spot on with the broadheads. Here's a pic of the 50 yard difference.

My MXB320 loves the 22" Black Eagle Executioners and 100 grain Slick Tricks. They will shoot the same as my field points. When I was using Spitfires they would shoot about 2" to the left and about an 1" low as my field points.

I'll have to look into those. I can remember the hold off when I am afield but would prefer that they just shot the same. I fired several groups of field points and broadheads and the groups were very consistent.

Looking good!
I'm just guessing, but it might be the wind drag from the shape of the broadhead even though weight is the same. I've wondered about mine, but haven't shot one yet. Maybe I should.
Someone sent me a really nice string cocker for my crossbow today. I'm going to go shoot tomorrow, and maybe get a few squirrels.
This weather is heavenly. I went to the forest today, but late for squirrels. I checked out the handicap areas there for the first time. I have a guy who wants to check it out with me. It all looks the same to me.
There sure is something to say about knowing your hunting land. Having cameras sure did help me figure out that they were skirting my property this year until they found some treats that I have growing.
