The next sighting in shots were done with 20″ bolts and 125 grain field points out to 70 yards. Accuracy was very good at all distances, but opened up as the distances increased. At 70 yards groups were slightly greater than 3″.

This is not a toy – it’s the real deal. The first time I shot this I wore more protective gear that I usually do when I go shoot my guns. And reasonably so, look at the picture I got of one of the bolts in the tree stump. That’s not Photoshop brother, that’s my first real shot from like 30 yards away into a real tree stump. The dang thing went in almost 1/3 of the way. Imagine what that will do to a deer…hell, imagine hitting a rabbit with that thing. Poof man…fade into the wind…

over all i wish i could give this a seven star review thus far, this feels great and shoots better than any of my other bows. i would be hard pressed to tell someone to skip on this.

Easy to cock with little effort.

one of my bows is a recurve at 200lbs, this bow is stouter than that, without a scale i can not tell you what the pull is, but that 200lb recurve pulls easier than this one so be ready.

Everything you need. I got the scope zero’ed in. Third reticle line down is about 45 yards. I hit a 1 inch bullseye on the first shot right before it got too dark to see. Be careful not to break your bolts by hitting on top of them. Very powerful compared to a compound bow. I lost a bolt because it went through the target and all the way into the backstop past the nock. My first time using a crossbow. It is shockingly powerful and easy to shoot. I know you can spend a lot more on a crossbow, but this one seems more than adequate to me. You could certainly hunt big game with it.If you’re on the fence about buying a crossbow for hunting, dont be. I was skeptical about getting one because I have hunted with a compound bow and had success with that and I felt like the crossbow was cheating a bit. That is not really the case. Shooting the crossbow has less of a learning curve as compared to compound bow or recurve but you still need to practice with it, keep consistent form, and stay within your comfort zone for hots on a deer. I’m in the 40 yards or less camp, I know I can hit farther and I’m sure people do, good for them, it’s not for me. It’s up to you how far you want to go after a wounded deer in the dark. Anyway, the bow was easy to assemble, easy to sight in (pretty accurate out of the box, minor tweaking needed) and is pretty light. The only concern I have is the noise. Makes a pretty good “thunk” when shot but not as loud of a crack as I was expecting. I think some limb dampeners are happening in the near future but that bolt is really cruising so I think at “bow range” the deer would be unlikely to “jump the string” bad enough to where a good shot would turn into a bad one, still possible but that’s hunting. So far, I have my first 20 yard “pin” (top line in the crosshairs) dialed in and shoots a group about the size of a half dollar. This was also a great option because I hunt from the ground and in ground blinds where I have a hard time maneuvering a compound bow for a shot. It’s a great crossbow for the rice and frankly, if it helps you put a better shot on an animal why wouldn’t you do it?

I’m happy. It doesn’t disappoint and actually exceeded some expectations.
