I made some carbon fiber cross crossbow bolts from tent poles, as most of us know a good set of bolts we are paying around £35/£60 for 5 bolts, these will work out very cheap.

Weight they are heavy at 43.5g my ten point will throw these out with a hefty punch, I will hope to get some good thud with my weaker crossbows as well, tomorrow I will do a firing test on a few crossbows as this is drying now.
Will work out the cost per bolt, and post update on both how it performs and price per unit, at a guess £1 each.
