That's a hard choice my friend.
Good luck with it.
I love my Excalibur Equinox crossbow but would love the Accura as well

Now, if you could just figure out how to mount a couple of bow limbs on an Accura..................

I am going to buy a new one myself this year. However I am not in any hurry. I have been studying them a good bit. There is a pretty good forum called "Crossbow Nation". There is a good bit of information on the forum. Including many used CB's for sale. Tom.

Corey Excalibur Xbows are the best. They are made here in the town where I live. Their warranty is forever and their service ie second to none. I have an older model Exocet. Put 2 arrows through the same hole at 35 yards no problem.
