6. Excalibur TwinStrike

Excalibur is rethinking the horizontal archery game with its new TwinStrike crossbow. This model gives the hunter two bolts that are locked and loaded for twice the confidence. It features the all-new DualFire Technology, which allows two bolts to be nocked at once. This allows the shooter to have an immediate follow-up shot ready to go. And, technically, both can be fired simultaneously. This over-and-under system provides a perfectly-balanced crossbow that is skeletonized for weight reduction (yet carries Excalibur’s signature durability), and incorporates a quad limb and dual string setup. It also equips the hunter with two independent, frictionless, 4-pound, match-grade triggers. The front trigger fires the top rail, and the back trigger fires the bottom rail. (A wide finger guard enables easy gloved shooting.) Both bolts shoot through the riser for increased accuracy and consistency. This model also sports Ceasefire Technology, which boosts safety by ensuring the crossbow will not fire unless a bolt is loaded. This safety and dry-fire-reduction technology works in conjunction with Excalibur’s new Rhino Nock, providing a positive audible click when loaded correctly. Diving into specifications, the TwinStrike has an overall length of 33.375 inches, cocked width of 21.125 inches, and uncocked width of 25.25 inches. It has a 9.625-inch power stroke, 358-pound draw weight, and weighs 7.75 pounds. It comes with the new OverWatch Scope, scope mount and rings, Rebolt Quiver, Charger EXT cocker and Fail Safe Strap, DualFire de-cocking aid, four bolts with Rhino nocks, and more.

This ultra-fast hunting crossbow is one of the narrowest ever, measuring an incredible 5.8 inches when cocked, and 11 inches uncocked. It has a 14-inch power stroke, and an overall length of 35 inches. It also features a 3.5-pound, two-stage S1 trigger that delivers a crisp, consistent break. It also comes with a bubble level, RangeMaster Scope mounted on a machined aluminum 7/8-inch fixed dovetail mount, six-bolt quiver, crossbow bolts, and soft crossbow case.

It’s 35.5 inches long (without foot stirrup), has a 13.5-inch power stroke, and weighs 6 pounds.
