Default Elephant Killer!

Vortex



[align=center](Available Spring 2007)[/align][align=left]Shooting up to 330 FPS*, our new 200 lb. Vortex is a superb combination of cutting edge design and peak performance all in a compact package. Utilizing our comfortable and stable new thumbhole stock, it has ample power for the largest game, its accuracy is without peer, and it"™s rugged enough to tackle your toughest hunts without ever letting you down. Decorated using the Kolorfusion process for maximum detail and realism with the new "śRealtree APTM"ť camouflage, the Vortex comes with quick detach swivels, our fiber optic sight, and is drilled and tapped to accept Excalibur"™s scope and quiver mounts. If you are a hunter who appreciates searing speeds and flat trajectories in a smaller package, the new Vortex is the crossbow for you! #2260[/align]

Nope! I'm waiting on my Cat-Scan reports and if there is no change, I might be good to go!

I think I'm going with the Vixen, No Elephants in Fl..

I believe that the thumb hole stock is also a little bit shorter which makes the over all length of the bow a little shorter. In other words ..... the only difference between the brother bows (same poundage) is the stocks (normal stock / thumb hole stock) whicch creates two different over alll lenghts as well.
