Arrived yesterday. I got a package deal from Wyvern Creations. Still putting things together and happy thus far. I'm pleased with the minimal width and weight of the rig. I sprang for the Charger EXT crank, mostly because I didn't want to fight with it if I had to reload in a tree stand, and because I wanted EZ un-cocking. Not cheap, but I hunted with my last kit for 2 decades (or more). We'll see how she hunts ...
Feels wrong posting about a crossbow in this forum, and overall weird after a lifetime of archery. Such is life, and I'm glad to have more hunting ahead.

Closer than 40 yards, you'll bust bolts on each other. Love mine - did you get the Quick TD, or the one bolt through the barrel? I take mine down with the bolt for storage and travel - keep it in this case: https://www.excaliburcrossbow.com/bowtech_tech/explore-takedown-caseWorks great, and makes storing the x-bow much easier - I thought removing the bow might an issue, but I've had great repeatable accuracy over about a year.

The one with the barrel bolt. Looks good to me. Closer than 40 yards, you'll bust bolts on each other. Love mine - did you get the Quick TD, or the one bolt through the barrel?
