- An 80 lb draw weight is manageable compared with larger crossbows, yet it still requires deliberate cocking and setup before each shot.
- The package includes only three 6" aluminum bolts, so additional bolts may be needed for extended practice sessions.
- The included reflex red dot sight supports aiming, but users who prefer a different optic setup may need to make adjustments or add accessories.
