Interesting KLV, Seams their advertised speeds are at least near truthful. Thats what surprised me about the few crossbows I looked at last week. They were both a bit nose heavy but it seamed to actually help me hold it more steady. As i have learned in guns, lightweight ='s less fatigue but can hurt you in other ways, I wouldn't consider any crossbow i have seen so far as light so not worried I will find one to light LOL. I know some on here will scoff at this but i truly want to be able to effectively reach to 60 yards. I have heard of much firther shots being taken with a crossbow but I think that will be my absolute limit as i have also dug a many a arrow points out of critters. Did you buy your bow local?
