That's one thing crossbows have going for them. When you use the ammo that the company recommends, they either deliver what the specs say or you KNOW somebody lied. Bow companies are mostly shameless about fudging the "IBO"numbers, because they know most guys will never shoot that exact setup in the real world.

I would like to know why the crossbow outfits don't list the weight for the bolts they sell. Back-figuring, using theabove listed 320 fps and 95 ft lbs (and I assume that is with a carbon shaft?)the weight comes to418 grains. That sounds awfully heavy, considering the 20" length.

edit: I just weighed the bolts I use with my Wildcat. 16" 2219's with 125 gn tips, graphite inserts,and 5" vanes. Weight was 350 grains.
