I sold my old Horton crossbow with my homemade 22 scope mount and invested in this. I'ts 150 pound pull with 220 feet PS. I paid $219.00 and it came with a scope and 6 bolts with free shipping and no tax if you're in Canada. The website is www.canadacrossbow.com if anyones interested. I think it was a good investment considering the price you pay for crossbows these days. It also arrives within 3 business days.

If you can sue McDonalds for getting you fat then why can't you sue the alcohol companies for all the ugly people you ended up sleeping with?

It's an MK 150 that's manufactured by Perfect Line Manufacturing who have been in business since 1986 and also manufacture some bows for Precision Shooting Equipment (PSE).

a limb on my Horton is starting to splinter.  Might need to get something new if Horton doesn't fix it.  Not sending it in til I finish hunting turkey with it in 3 weeks.

I notice the 150 is NOT a compound bow?  any difficulty cocking it Gary??

 If my Horton ever gives up the ghost I'll be saving nickels and dimes till I can get an Excalabur.

Bear........The pics i posted we're from the web site. I still have to assemble it so i don't know how difficult it will be to cock. My Horton was 125 pound with a 30 inch limb which wasn't too bad. The limb is 27 inches on this new one i bought and with 150 pound pull. Also the instructions say to twist the string 20 times before attaching it so it gets the proper poundage in the pull.

Those Excalibers are wicked.  I've been looking at them too.  Ten Point has a nice X-bow as well.  Very pricey, though.

I know. Some will run you as high as a $1000.00. If i was strictly a bow hunter then i would foot the bill to buy one but i only use one for early and late season.
