Barnett Jackal Crossbow

"It's my birthday. I gotta Crossbow." I guess word got out I've been itching for a crossbow. I have no information about this thing but I know one thing. It's gonna draw a blood soon!

Advertised 150# @ 315 F.P.S. w/ 95# ft Energy @ 12" stroke

This might be the best the most effective way of eliminating hogs on my property. Yes, that's my night vision scope on top. I just learned how to enhance a 150 lumen Surefire Flashlight into complete infra-red enough for both my night vision scope and my video camera!!!

Can't wait to down some hogs and varmints!

Okay, sorry if this sounds extremely "nooby", but I was browsing around and i just was wondering if someone knew whether the Jackal or wildcat C5 is better? Where i've looked, the jackal has been priced lower than the wildcat C5, but yet on the internet ive read of the wildcat C5 as an introductory crossbow into Barnett's family of compound bows, (so wouldn't that make the Wildcat cheaper?).... If someone could reply with a good response, that will be really appreciated!

@Michaelpai1230 the only thing that makes any weapon an "intro level" weapon is the price. its been my opinion that any weapon takes care of business if the person behind the weapon spends the time.

"OK, so what's your intake (Review) on this jackal crossbow..." I purchased a horton... Love it. I was looking at this one. Can you do some target shoot @ 20 and 50yrds? would LOVE to see accuracry.

@yabouy I'm headed out on Friday to work at the property and sight in this Crossbow. There are a lot of good videos on line about Crossbow Accuracy and distance. In the Youtube search go to "Q1 Big Buck Pole: Compound vs. Crossbow" These things weren't designed to shoot massive distance. I will keep mine to 40 yards.

@dastealthyHunter i honestly don't know. if it has a weaver style rail you should be good to go but I honestly don't know about other Crossbow scope mounting rails to tell you the truth. Google ATN 410 Spartan and you'll have different sources.

@CraigRidley1 i would have no hesitancy using the Jackal on a bear. I just have no interest in hunting bears unless its with a tank weapon bwhahahahaa...
