Barnett has released the Wildcat CRX, a powerful yet quiet crossbow designed to tackle tough game. The simple, recurve design makes it easy to operate while also boasting advanced features typically found in much higher-priced crossbows. With a tip-to-tip length of 18 inches cocked and 25 inches uncocked, the CRX is ideal for hunters who want a highly maneuverable crossbow that takes a bite out of prey at close range.

Before the shot, arrows are held securely by Barnett’s Soft Lok Floating Bristle Retainer System. The Wildcat CRX also has an Anti-Dry-Fire Trigger system, as well as finger safety reminders above the pass-through foregrip to provide safety, precision ergonomics and comfort for unparalleled shooting experiences. In addition, the CRX has a quality, Metal Injection Molded trigger with no creep.
