I found that the Hawke XB30 has poor peripherals when dealing with higher velocity crossbows, even at 40 yards all you're seeing is deer fur if you can find it. I'm also not a fan of the fact not all the reticles illuminate. If the Evo-X has a wider view then go for it. But imho, I would recommend the Lumix Speedring to anyone, for only $120 you get the best reticles I've ever seen and a very wide view angle.
