Birthday gift for my son. He always got his first deer of the season with it! 😆 So accuracy and speed were no problem there. We did use different bolts than the ones recommended to buy with it.Son said it was comfortable and easy to use. Lightweight. Quality seems to be good so far.

Crossbow was easy to setup. Had trouble with the scope. Contacted Killer Instinct and discussed the issue, they gladly and promptly replaced the defective scope. Works correctly now. Thanks Killer Instinct

I bought this for the sheer sake of how tiny it is width wise, like 6 inches across while cocked. which is super nice to use in a ground blind! Its pretty short however and i believe it says it comes with an adjustable stock i could be wrong tho. But it definitely doesnt adjust making it quite short. Im 6' 2" so to get eye relief to see thru the scope i had to put it far as it would go forward on the rail and still have to lean back a little bit making it slightly awkward to shoot but still manageable. The scope is pretty basic a little blurry but for free it works great. Bow is fast and accurate, the distance i got when i swapped practice tips to 100 grain ( idk what grain it came with) seemed to drop drastically. With the tip it came with shot about 20 to 60 yards pretty accurate with first and second lines of scope and with the 100 grain tips it seemed to shoot about 1st line 10 yards 2nd line 20 yards and so on theres 4 lines. Which is fine, i only hunt about 30 to 40 yards anyway just thought it was weird. The safety is super loud i almost feel like a deer would definitely hear it go off when in bow range but havent been in that situation yet. KI advertises the bow to be quieter but still seems to be pretty loud like an average crossbow. Its a little heavy for how small it is. They again say its easier to draw back with like 80% let off or something, and it feels like that let off is at about 98% draw back so its not much help. Does draw back nice and smooth, my gf could only draw it back about 70% of the way so if there was an actual let off thatd be nice for her. i love the sled design, MINUS once its cocked the sled almost gets jammed or stuck. You have to force it back down the rail and you can tell theres alot of pressure from the strings, you have to like pop it off and it just feels wrong and not good and like you're going to wear out the string and cause some fraying right there.

I just bought this bow one week ago. I put it together and sighted it in with about 5 shots. It shoots great and the compact design of it is awesome. However, after about 15-20 shots with it I took into the woods for the first hunt and the limb began to crack. I couldn’t believe it!! I wasn’t in the tree 15 minutes and I just heard cracking (picture above). I am in the process of contacting Killer Instinct and the LLC I bought it from is shipping me a new one, but now I am wary of even using it after this problem. I hope it was just an oddity, but we’ll see.edit* It’s now been several weeks and countless hours on the phone and I still did not receive a new bow and have yet to be able to get in contact with Killer Instinct. This is the worst purchase I’ve made and Killer Instinct is a terrible company. I wrote emails and called for hours on hold and have yet to talk to a single person. Absolutely unacceptable. Terrible company. Will never purchase anything from them again!

Really happy with his crossbow. Took 5 shots to sight in. Very accurate and well made.

Love KI xbows, we hunt with 2 furious 9.5. This one had me excited but when sighted in it would fire off fliers, at least one bolt out a few inches and definitely not as accurate as our furious. Tried 3 different bolt brands and weights and all the same result so I returned it, can’t chance a 6†flier when hunting.

The crossbow arrived earlier than was expected. The packaging was very good with the crossbow product in three boxes total. It was fairly easy to assemble the crossbow. It only took a few shots to have the crossbow sighted in and it's fun to shoot. You do need a good crossbow target or the bolts will go through the target. I set up another target behind mine incase the bolts went through the first target. I would recommend this crossbow to anyone who is looking for an affordable crossbow that shoots like a more expensive crossbow.

This particular crossbow is solid. The design is more compact than my first crossbow from 2 years ago (different brand), quieter, more powerful, more accurate, and a bit easier to cock. I did experience a technical issue with it and had to go through Killer Instinct's customer service for a resolution. It required a small wait on the phone, but the representative was extremely pleasant (even during bow season) and helpful and provided a satisfactory resolution within 10 minutes of start of call. I am impressed and am now a K.I. fan until proven otherwise. Thank you, K.I.
