Replacement String for Cold Steel Cheap Shot 130 Crossbow – Black/Orange
Detailed Description and Features
This string is crafted from modern materials with low creep and high tensile strength, ensuring consistent performance even under heavy use. The centre section, which contacts the arrow and the crossbow rail, features a precision-applied centre serving that protects the main strands from abrasion. the vibrant black and orange colour scheme isn't just for style; it allows for easy visual inspection of the string's condition and ensures it is correctly seated in the limb tips.
Since the Cheap Shot 130 utilizes a unique under-lever cocking system, the string undergoes specific dynamic stresses. This genuine string is tested precisely for these loads. A correctly chosen string ensures that energy from the fibreglass limbs is efficiently transferred to the carbon bolt, achieving the maximum penetration power that Cold Steel is famous for.

Maintenance and Safety Tips
Strings and arrows are considered consumable parts, but proper maintenance can significantly extend their lifespan. Regular waxing is essential. Keep the centre serving and the string strands lubricated with specialized bowstring wax to prevent fraying and drying out. If you notice the serving is worn down to the base strands, replace the string immediately.
What to avoid:
- Dry Fire: Never fire your crossbow without a loaded bolt! Even though the Cheap Shot 130 features an anti-dry fire safety, bypassing this rule will lead to immediate damage to the string and limbs.
- Dirt and Grit: Avoid letting the string touch sand or sharp rocks, which can cause microscopic damage to the fibres.
- Heat Exposure: Do not store your crossbow in a hot car or near heat sources, as high temperatures degrade the synthetic materials.
Interesting Fact about Modern Archery
Did you know that the string on a high-performance crossbow like the Cheap Shot vibrates at such high frequencies during release that it is invisible to the naked eye? The energy transfer happens in a fraction of a second, which is why the quality of the "serving" (the protective wrap) is just as important as the strength of the string itself.
Recommended Accessories
To ensure smooth operation, we recommend purchasing a premium bowstring wax, a must-have for every shooter. This crossbow also performs best with 38 cm (15-inch) carbon bolts, which provide the perfect balance of weight and length for the Cheap Shot system. If you want to enhance your aiming capabilities, consider adding a Red Dot sight with multiple brightness settings for various lighting conditions.
