I doubt it. I only got a few shots off before the limb broke, twice. This bow is a piece of garbage.

Good arrows and the right broadband it would be ok at about 50 yards so yes you could

Can you kill something with a machine that launches arrows at high speeds at the pull of a trigger? Yes. Yes you can. Now SHOULD you hunt with a bulky, heavy, hard to cock, hard to hold sighting reflex bow crossbow, when Carbon fiber compounds are lighter, faster, more accurate, and therefore more humane to what you're killing? No. If you're hunting and you want to try crossbows go get a Barrett. Don't waste your time with entry level things just because they're cheap. You'll have remorse and end up getting the good one anyway later. This bow is good for target shooting and displaying, because the heavy wood and steel body looks sharp hung up, but it is far too heavy to carry on a hunt all day.

While you could probably kill a raccoon with it, the answer would have to be no, it would not be good for hunting raccoons. If you get close enough, if you hit in the right place, if you use the right pellet, is too many 'if's. It is too likely the raccoon will scuttle away seriously wounded, which is bad. It is fine for birds, squirrels, and maybe small rabbits but for anything larger look for something that hits harder.

My ten and five year old share it. Its ok for target practice in the back yard. It will hurt. I shot my ten year old and he cried, he shot me and I apologized, I didnt think it would sting as much as it did. The sting only lasted about 3 seconds. If your ten year old wants to us it to train to hunt then I suggest something more powerful as this is more of a toy. A good toy none the less.

Well, deer do not have hands or pose-able thumbs, so probably not. LOL But if you want to hunt deer with this bow, that certainly can be done and will be quite effective.

It is not if you can it is should you. You can hunt elk with a 223. should you (NO). I have not hunted elk with this but I have found that with practice it is very accurate. I did shoot a large buck whitetail at 50yd. the bolt passed through it side ways and landed 20yd. beyond. I think with a good shot It would take down a elk clean.

not out of the box, but with some light tuning, it would be good for small game, it doesn't have enough pounds to take out a deer. The arrows that come with it, also are fixed tips, so you would need arrows cut to have a hunting tip, as they are field tips.

You absolutely can yes. I work with a man from the great white north and asked him to make sure and he confirmed it. Because there is no restrictions on crossbows like there are firearms you are permitted to do so. Happy hunting you hoser.

I don't know. The one I purchased was not for a Hunter. It didn't work anyway. My Contractor couldn't get it to work either. Don't waste your money.

Yes - I have 3 of them I've used all hunting season. Seem to be very high quality.

Most states have hunting laws that forbid use of low power rim fire guns such as a .22 calibre. A pellet rifle such as the Silent Cat would be included in this ban. Hunting anything larger than squirrels with a pellet gun would be ridiculous and cruel.

if it's for hunting purposes, I'd say yes. But if it's for target shooting - no.

Yes I am currently going try some 125 grains as there are quite of them on market for crossbow If I were hunting elk,moose,or bear would defiantly stick with the 150 for penetration

Great knife. It's more tactical than hunting. You could use it as hunting but there probably is a better selection than this one. Very sharp and sturdy knife. Great great knife. So to answer your question.. It's up to you. I say yes but look for something else too

The Martin xr recurve is barely strong enough to stick a target at 15 feet, so Halloween yes! No way for hunting. It's pretty much a toy.

Well Pat, I'm a novice whn it comes to bow hunting, last month I harvest my first doe with the Inferno crossbow at 20 yards n 2 wild pigs. For the money it was a great deal and experience for myself. He should have fun with it. Good luck

No it cannot, its just a pellet gun. You can however use it for small game such a rabbit, squirrel and pigeon.
