There were some problems when the Stryker first came out but I haven't heard of any lately.
I love the looks, features, and speed of the Stryker.
While 405 fps may seem fast to some, it is still dead slow compared to any firearm.
It's muchslower than an air rifle as one guy pointed out on another site to put it in perspective.
The main advantage of the Stryker, hunting wise, is that it will blow thru both shoulders of a deer making for better recovery if your shot should be off.
To me, that makes the Stryker a more humane killer than other crossbows or compounds.
Of course, I'm talking the same hunting distances as those other weapons.
Not 60 to 80 yard shots !
