crossbow question
« on: December 08, 2012, 11:20:11 AM »
Ive just got my cross bow permit and I have started researching different crossbows. I have no experiance with cross bows. Anyone have any feed back on what to look for in a crossbow? Is it FPS? Draw wieght? Power stroke?
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks

I have not shot any but am curious as well.  On TV, some seem a lot noisier than others.  I think the faster the better to keep the energy up since the bolts tend to be lighter than full sized arrows.

I received my cross permit this year also and after alot of research decided on the Excalibur. It'd 225 lbs. and has the recurve limbs.Check out their website there's alot of useful information on it www.excaliburcrossbow.com


It's better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it.                                                                             Local 66 sheetmetal workers

I went and purchased the Barnet quad 400 last night. I will get out and shoot it this week.!!
