I've got the same model Horton and it's taken several deer out here.

My neighbor has one too, but he doesn't get out to hunt much anymore. The red dot scope failed on both his and mine, so he went back to the pin sights and I mounted a regular scope on mine and we haven't had problems since.

I've found one major thing about accuracy with these things is to bring the string back the same way every time. I thought I was doing that, until I bought the rope cocking device, and the accuracy got much more consistant after that.

Also, it's a good idea to check the bolt that locks the bow portion to the stock every 100 shots or so, as they're prone to getting loose on that model.

The Horton crossbows might not be the fastest or strongest or quietest out there, but from what I've seen, they are the most rugged and last the longest. I've still got a Horton Yukon that I got almost ten years ago and it's still working just fine.

Well guys, I don't know. A Crossbow? That's not really airgunnish. How can we keep our standards up with medieval equipment like this? Razz

It looks like it's half M-16.

Now if that would be an attachment like a m203 'nade launcher... Mr. Green
