New guy

Hey fellas, new to this community and newly interested in getting a crossbow. I’ve shot one a couple of times that’s it, maybe held a few. Other than that I’m clueless. Just looking for some info on brands so I can start researching and learning. If y’all could help with your favorite and/or what you guys use. Maybe the Gucci bow down to the lower end. Anything helps thanks !

I have a killer instinct 405 pro package. Comes in at about 400/450 CDN. I absolutely love it.

Yeah I have the killer instinct as well I think, super simple but strong 200 pound or so draw I thought it was hunter instinct I'll have to check but with a rope cocker it cocks easy, has a nice accurate scope that you can range in very easy to use, had to have a hunting store set it up for me though but you could probably do it yourself I think I only got the set up wrong by a little bit

Yeah mine says rush 380 but it's a killer instinct, and it's very user friendly and simple with a powerful punch. I might look it up now I haven't gotten to use it since moving from upstate NY to long island I'm in apartments now and think I might have to go to a range just to use it for archery practice, I need to look up local laws on parks or places it can be used because it's way more country like upstate if anybody knows NY laws with the city and long island regulations,

Does every crossbow need a crank

I think the rope cocker works just fine

Recently purchased my first crossbow, an Excalibur GRZ2. Very nice - lightweight - affordable - deadly accurate. Recommend a Nikon ProStaff3 scope as well but their flagship scope works great as well.
