Mission 320 Prelim test, impressions
I LOVE it. Did some shooting inside today, 20 yards (from back of shop through attached pole barn). Range was somewhat limited but it repeatedly hit exactly to aiming point. It's significantly lighter than my other bows,balances well, narrow (19.5" uncocked), easy to cock (the cams roll over near the top making the last 5-6" nearly effortless). GREAT trigger. School is still out on not having a stirrup, one has to be careful to insert foot enough to prevent bow slipping from foot. I'll get used to it I'm sure as I shoot it more; it's part of what makes the bow so compact and well balanced. If it shoots this well beyond 40 yards, with broadheads, I'll really be happy.

Prelim Test is the best way to choose the right crossbow.I had also faced a similar test at a local store few days back. He provided with a Matrix 355 Xtra which is brand new launch at the shop. It's too good with compact platform, unmatched durability,and light weight(wt.5 lb 4oz.). I hardly feel any problem while cocking and can feel the power behind by pulling the trigger.On my practice I missed the target by an inch but I am impressed by this crossbow with just a little speed (355 fps is still extremely fast) and a few features.

Got my 320 on wed and haven't even cocked it yet. I thought the bolts in the hunter kit came with field points. I'm an hour away from the nearest shop and haven't had time to go get some so I cant shoot. I've got some smaller dia. heads but hate to tear up my target. maybe tomorrow.

I've seen other guys speak well of these bows also. Very light & compact, accurate....
I've yet to see anything with a M4 type stock that feels right for me though....but that is me, what feels best for me. Lots of others seem to like them well.
