Are these crossbows 2013 modles? The reason I ask is the speed of the bow states 365fps. The speed of the 2012 and 2013 is rated at 385fps.

Just ordered and received one and it is the 385 fps model. Amazon's site needs to be updated with correct info. An incredible deal for this crossbow; no one else is selling it cheaper. Snap it up before it is gone if you are in the market for one.

I bought mine in 2012 and it is rated 385fps, I would say if yours is rated 365fps it would be an earlyer model. Sorry I can,t give you any more held than that. Mine is loud but the speed makes up for it. Have brought 2 deer down with it one at about 27yards and the other at 40yards

Sorry, I've never owned a crossbow although I'd like to get one. I have no point of reference to find your answer.

It's loud. It is the only crossbow I have ever owned so I don't have anything to compare it to. I have always heard that it is the way it is with crossbows.

I don't know because I never shot a crossbow before. If the bolts are smaller in diameter than arrows then probably because these heads were to thin to fit my arrows. I really wanted these heads for my bow but just didn't fit.

I returned the scope. It was a well built Really nice scope but I put it on a barnett rc 150 and it WOULD NOT zero on my bow. My bow it hitting close to 300 fps and this scope should have worked I wish it would have because I really liked it. Maybe I just got a defective one.it was too close to deer season for me to keep messing with it so I just put my old scope back on and re zeroed it.

The crossbow works just as well left handed as right handed. I actually use it both ways and practice both ways so that it improves my shot radius. Your safe buying this bow if your left handed. It's a great bow for the price. I would not spend a fine more for other bows.

Mine was perfect right out of the box. I literally put it together and shot it at ten yards in the bullseye. 20,30,40 yards same thing. No adjustments necessary. It has a spot for 50 yards but the bow is loud so 40 is my max.

My arrows came with the straight Blazer vanes (the short ones), nothing like the Quick Spins which I've used in the past but came back to Blazers. The quickspins have drag and reduce your fps. They were supposed to be more accurate, But I couldn't really notice any difference. You always get some spin, but these vanes are not what contributes to that.

Specs state up to 285 fps, though we never had our clocked. I would assume that is with the aluminum bolts that are included with the crossbow, but I am not sure of that. I personally wouldn't use aluminum bolts in any crossbow, carbon fiber can be had at a price point that makes them very competitive with aluminum, especially when you take carbon fibers durability into consideration. I have taken 3 deer with one carbon fiber bolt, I doubt you could shoot one of the aluminum bolts that are included three times without damaging it beyond the point of reliability.

You should ask the people at TenPoint for the answer to your question. I only have used TenPoint crossbows.

I shoot at 305 fps and there is very little penetration with a 150 lb bow. At 400 I am not sure how it will perform. I think it would still stop the bolt with a little more penetration due ro the faster speed.

Sorry I'm not familiar with the fever. I use them in our crossbows. They shoot at 315 ft per sec. Decent bolts especially for the money.

Horton never produced a 2013 model of any crossbow. I have noticed some people are advertising old ones as 2013 but I assure you there are NOT any 2013 models, Horton knew they were going to go out of business.

Well i ordered this pink ones last year and they worked great i have a Barnett C-5 and was using a barnett carbon arrow and these did not shoot any different I did not have to adjust my scope for them. I do not know the weight. I ordered again this year thinking I would get the same arrows and that was not the case the arrows I recieved were horrible cheep and not the red pink as shown.

This bow is capable of making an ethical kill at 60yds. It is an extremely fast and accurate bow. I have a friend who shoots the new Excalibur maxis 380 and although it is a little faster . At 30 and 40 yards I can group as good or better than he does . Personally I have a self imposed limit of 40 to 45 yds.

I'm not positive. It is pretty tough. I'm shooting heavy arrows at right around 275 fps, and there's always plenty of arrow left sticking out. But with short and heavy bolts pushing a full 375 fps - just not sure.

Nope, i have 2 hoyt 330+fps bows and have not encountered any issues. It works off the cables, i think they said it would work up to 400+fps bows.
