...a couple of friends and I are considering buying crossbows for use on private land in the UK.
From what we can tell we have a choice of between 150lbs draw and 80lbs; which would be best? Also a choice between those taht fire 6" and 14" aluminium bolts- again which is better?
Also, can telescopic sights be fitted to crossbows and if so, are they effective? What sort is needed?
Thanks
For starters the one that fires a 14 inch bolt will have a flatter trajectory and will be much more accurate. The 6 inch bolt is unstable and will drop off quickly loosing energy due to greater wind resistance brought on by its instability. You did not say what you were going to use them for, hunting? Target practice? etc. I assume the one with the 6 inch bolt is a handgun style crossbow, this is useless for anything other than playing around with very short range target practice. Take the 150 lb bow with 14 inch bolts for longer range and more versatility.
