Crossbow - Barnett Ghost 410
Required - Mount for Picitinny (was hard to find)
Out of the box, mounted and shot at 20 yards...shot about 6" low and 3" to the left. After a few clicks - amazingly accurate. The ability to draw in light on the cross-hairs is incredible. Accuracy is spot on. I am shooting consistently at 80 yards and hitting a 3" circle. All distances closer...you have to pick different spots on the target so you don't jack up a bolt/fletchings.
Size - could not ask for better size
Built in range finder - I am not sold on it. I have been using electronic range finders for so many years..60.2 yards...it is hard to switch out of the mentality to simply use the built in ranger finder. The numbers are a bit small, bit I can see them.
Would I recommend over the Barnett scope - absolutely.
Cost - Wow, the optic is more expensive than the crossbow. But in reality, with most of my quality rifles, a quality scope is generally more expensive.
400+ speed - The cross-hairs are spot on for the speed. Know the distance=exactly on.
The first cross-hair is zero at 30 yards. If I shoot 20 yards, it is about 1" high.
30 yards exactly on.
40 yards exactly on.
50 yards exactly on.
60 yards exactly on.
70 yards exactly on.
80 yards exactly on.
What more could you want...Well, I'd like to have an electronic range finder built in just like my handheld.
NOTE: Make sure you purchase the correct model. There are three (3) different models depending on your c...
