Hi all!
I had a disturbing new experience last night! Whilst shooting I got a vibration noise and checking the normal culprits ( sight screw, long rod/vbar etc.) could find nothing wrong, so carried on. After several more shots and several more fruitless checks I discovered the problem - the dovetail on the limb mounting had become loose to the extent that the allen screw on the front of the limb could be turned freely by hand! Now this has never happened before, so the question(s) is/are : Is it something that could be expected from time to time (I've been using these particular limbs a couple of months)? Or is it a more serious problem and a sign of impending limb failure?
Any answers appreciated - I'm supposed to have my first FITA tournament this weekend, and I'd be happier in the knowledge that limb and riser weren't going to part company at any minute!
Regards
Tel
