Yes, and no..... I've killed plenty of deer with my 15+ year old crossbow. And I'll continue to kill deer with it when I choose to take it out. But it won't do what a Ravin will do. Not even close.
IMO the ravin is really TOO much of a good thing. I'll never shoot deer at the range these things are able to accurately shoot at.

I wish they would focus more on shootability at this point. I'd rather they make them smoother and quieter rather than faster.
My crossbow shoots 380fps, could not really be more accurate within reasonable hunting range, is pretty compact and cost $400
I could no doubt kill a deer at 100 yards if it would stand still but I keep it 50 or less because I think any more than that there is just to much that could go wrong with any crossbow.
Centerpoint makes a really good shooting 370fps crossbow for like $250. If you are looking to get into something really good for the money check them out. Centerpoint sniper 370..It just cannot be beat for the money.
