What size cocking rope do you use?

Just subbed on the basis of your excellent review. From the U.K. here so keep in mind the limitations on our options when I ask this and the present times which is why I’m asking. Would this stop a human intruder if fired 15-25 yards and hits in chest? Asking from a home defence scenario perspective. Thank you.

I have the Blackcat here in the UK (so no deer hunting for me I`m afraid!). I also favour 20" carbon bolts, and I have a Barnett rope cocker; mine is paired up with a Hawke XB30 scope. A good option for SHTF and prepper scenarios

I have a Black Cat 150lb … I’ve killed many deer with it! Plenty of power for even 150lb hogs

In the instruction booklet that came with my wildcat bow , it states that a cocking string comes with this package

All but sold on this crossbow, good review; thanks for clearing up those questions... only two things I'm wondering is it able to be cocked unassisted by hand? And is it ambidextrous as far as the quiver goes?
@BowsandBlades1999 Жыл бұрын
I cock mine by hand but it does have issues of the bolts not sitting flat on the rail throwing off the accuracy,I'm currently trying to find a solution,even 20inch bolts tip up off the rail

I’m trying to add the universal cocking device and don’t know where to mount it. This is the my first time using a crossbow and I had shoulder surgery that requires the cocking device. Any help would be great thanks

I'm thinking about picking one up soon. How's the durability you think? I have a good more expensive one. I basically just want one I can abuse and beat up.

What is your bolt/broadhead grain that is working well for you with this bow
@Merleshields-dp1fs10 ай бұрын
I have this model. I find that the crossbow bolt does not sit flat in the rail. The distal broad head end sits slightly elevated and to the left. Can this be corrected?
@kdavis2694 ай бұрын
Mine does the same thing. I believe it is the anti dry fire mechanism applying too much pressure on top of the nock

Is it powerful enough for hogs/boars ?
@nicolaalberti7736 Жыл бұрын
@renegadebroadcastingrenega610 I've asked about hogs/boars, not deers. Pay attention.
@nicolaalberti7736 Жыл бұрын
@renegadebroadcastingrenega610 "Hog recurve" research answers anything; they probably drive me to trad archery guys who shot hogs with traditional recurve bow shooting 600 grs arrows with Eskimo broadheads at 185 fps., and, if I include "crossbow", they probably drive me to Excalibur crossbows that are way more powerful than the light Barnett Wildcat, so I need first hand experience, however, thanks for your suggestion.
@kdavis2694 ай бұрын
Wild small/medium hogs yes, large boars (can reach 700 lbs) should use a compound crossbow with at least 65-70 foot lbs of kenetic energy from my understanding. This particular Barnett recurve crossbow is producing about 55-57 ftlbs of kenetic energy depending on if you are using 20" 400 grain bolts or 18" 380 grain bolts prospectively. It's the equivalent of a mid 2000's quality 60-70lb compound bow in my opinion. The new compound bows are already pushing past 300 fps just like the newer compound crossbows are pushing over 400 fps.
