really fast and accurate!!,November 1, 2009
By bearclaw89from PA
"This is my first crossbow and find it to be very fast and accurate. Mine came with a red dot sight and I use the first pin from 20 to 40 yds. The only thing I don't like is the possition of the safety, it can be bumped off if your not careful,find myself checking it often."

Blistering Speed & Power,September 1, 2009
By RyanofTexasfrom Texas
"I purchased the Predator package with the 4X32 multi-reticle scope. Very easy to assemble, though the instructions could be a little more detailed. Assembly is simply mounting the arms to the stock with one bolt, mounting the scope to the scope rail and fastening the bolt carrier to the foregrip.
I had to mount the scope as far forward as possible, and extend the butt plate (which is simple) pretty far in order to maintain appropriate eye relief with the 4X32 scope. I do not have long arms either, so this may be an issue for some of you tall folks.
Ok, on the the good stuff. I took this out back with the supplied barnett bolts and field points. Just FYI, barnett stipulates that no less than 425 total grain weight bolts should be used with the predator. Using "the block" target, starting at 20 yards, it shot clean through and hit my backstop. I had to pull the bolts out of the back to retrieve them. After I got my scope aligned, I went back to 40 yards, and using the top reticle it was dead on bullseye. The bolts buried themselves in the block, up to the fletching, with some up to the nock.
I then ranged it out to 60 yards, and using the second reticle, hit about an inch or two below center. The quality of the supplied bolts suprised me, as I did not lose a single bit of fletching through the abuse they took.
Overall, the Predator seems to be well made and is very accurate. My only complaint is the trigger, which seems to take about 10lbs of force to release (my guess). However, I am accustomed to my 3 - 3.5lb triggers on my rifles, which is all together different."

Barnett Predator,August 25, 2009
By Pontiac400from Bridgeton, NJ
"Just got my Barnett Predator and love it. Very powerful!!! At 45yds, bolt went thru a 10" layered foam target and 1/2" plywood. Keep it lubed up. Scope was just about right on out of the box. I shot 1/2 moon nocks and flat nocks with no difference. And shot carbon and alum. bolts. Alum. bolts didn't have the range because of being heavier. Make sure your total weight, bolt and tip is at least 445 grains. I'm all ready to go and can't wait to kill a deer with it!!!"

AWESOME CROSSBOW,June 12, 2009
By Tommy817from Crowley, TX
"If your in the market for a crossbow, buy the Barnett Predator. It's the best deal on the market. It's blazing fast. You can't even see the arrow when you shoot. I can shoot 1/2" groups at 50 yard indoors. On my setup the first line on my scope is good up to 30 yards, in between the 1st and 2nd is good at 40 and the 3rd line is perfect at 50. I haven't shot further yet, but I'm absolutely positive this crossbow will kill a deer at 50 yards with ease. Since I've bought mine, my dad, my brother and best friend have all bought Barnett Predator's."

Barnett Predator is AWESOME,May 28, 2009
By PreStrutfrom Athens, GA
"This is one AWESOME crossbow!!!! I have shot this thing approximately 70 times now with only one problem. The scope base vibrated loose after about 30 shots so I had to remove the scope and put Loc-Tite on the base screws. 40 shots later and it's still tight. I hit a 2" bullseye at 90 yards with this thing using the 5th cross hair. It is incredibly accurate. Since the string has weakened from this many shots, I can only hit a bullseye at 80 yards now with a 2" grouping. BELIEVE IT!!!!!! I use the 1st crosshair for 10-30 yards, the 2nd for 40 yards, the 3rd for 50 yards, between the 3rd and 4th for 60 yards, the 4th for 70 yards, and between the 4th and 5th for 80 yards. When the string is new I use the 5th for 90 yards. This is a FAST crossbow and surprisingly quiet. I've heard bows louder than this thing. Just make sure to Loc-Tite the base screws down when you get it, before you put the scope on. Also, I keep it gooped up with wax at all times. This thing is very well made and it's EASY to assemble. I highly recommend it!!!"

Flat awesome,April 20, 2009
By Gotitdonefrom Southwestern Iowa
"Which is faster, Cabela’s shipping and handling or the Barnett Predator? It’s a question with an easy answer, it’s a tie. With a crossbow pushing a bolt down range at better than 375 feet per second and ordering from Cabela’s on Wednesday morning (standard shipping) and receiving your order the next Friday, it’s pretty evident that both have truly redefine the word ‘Fast’. I can’t help but wonder if I had specified expedited shipping, would Cabela’s have delivered this crossbow Wednesday afternoon to my front door? As for the Barnett Predator, this is the crossbow that is setting new standards for the archery industry. Its great speed and accuracy will send a cold chill down the back bone of all game you may pursue. Custom fitting this crossbow to your size and shooting style is accomplished in mere minutes with the adjustable stock length and cheek piece. Thanks to Barnett’s attention to detail, the precisely crafted trigger assembly is as smooth as glass. There’s no question that cocking a crossbow with a 175 pounds of pull can be difficult at best, but using the Barnett cranking device makes drawing the string into place a piece of cake. If you prefer to do it the old fashion way, use the rope cocking device, as it too, makes cocking this crossbow easier than most of all the others I have used. Superb optics, quiver, supplies bolts, finish and surprisingly quiet only add to this already great crossbow. Everyone expects a review to mention a CON for the product, OK, to date I have yet to find a target capable of handling the power generated by this crossbow. Be prepared to do a lot of very hard pulling to remove the bolt from the target. We actually use a piece of a 2x4 placed against the field tip to push the bolt back through the target. Using soap on the bolt to ease removal just allows the bolt to completely bury itself in the target. Don’t take my word for it, if you’re looking for a crossbow for hunting, target practice or just a whole bunch of fun in the backyard, look no further. Combine the Barnett Predator crossbow and Cabela’s for a winning combination."

$$$...Best For The Money...$$$,February 17, 2009
By BuckMasterMacfrom Forestville, CT
"Super fast and deadly accurate! I practice shooting oranges at 50 yards. Would have gave it a fifth star but they need to make a lighter crossbow (not just Barnett) acroos the board. All makes and models are still to heavy. I use mine for handicap hunting and they're heavy to hold in position to shoot when you see the game approaching."

Wicked Accuracy,January 20, 2009
By Ricky01from Waynesboro, MS.
"I sighted in the crossbow at 15 yards like the instructions said. I then shot it at 20, 25, and 30 yards using the same crosshair. At 30 yards it dropped one inch. Aim halfway between the first and second crosshairs for 35 yards and use the second crosshair for 40 yards dead on. It is also very fast. I love it. I have killed two deer with it in two weeks."

Barnett Predator Crossbow,October 2, 2008
By blindjohnfrom ohio
"I really like the crossbow. Its fast, accurate, and very powerful. I have found one problem with it. I bought a crossbow sling for it. If you use the sling you cant have any arrows in the quiver. It pushes against the first arrow and puts a bow in it. I tried it with 1, 2 ,3, and 4 arrows and it did the same to each one. the only ways to get around this is to have no sling or to carry the quiver in your hand."

Great crossbow!,September 23, 2008
By Wolfman951from California
"This crossbow is all you'll need for hunting. POWER!! SPEED!! I have a Excalibur Lumi-zone scope on mine and the range compensator has to be turned (all the way up) to 350 FPS in order for it to work right. WARNING!!! DO NOT DRY-FIRE this bow! I've done it twice, forgetting to put a bolt in it after cocking, and it destorys itself!!! Cams.sting and cables, all at once. Otherwise, this is a great crossbow that can really drive nails at 40 yds. !!! They should have put a safety on it that prevents firing if there is no bolt! Good Hunting! Wolfman951"

Sweet Crossbow,September 15, 2008
By Ghilehunterfrom Pa
"I have been hunting with crossbows for many years due to shoulder and back problems and have to say this bow is a serious hunters weapon. If there is such a thing as to much of a good thing. This is it. The bow shoots level, quit and quick. The only problems I see are it is going to eat up strings (keep it lubed up and it should be fine). And it is a little heavy in the front end, more than I am used to. Don't hesitate to buy it. Definitly worth every penny. I love it!!!"

Long Draw = More Power,September 9, 2008
By LtColHfrom Seattle, Washington
"This is an excellent bow, and does not suffer from a short draw that restricts the power stroke. It is slightly front-heavy, but this helps stabilize the crossbow for longer shots. I have fired more than 50 bolts without a great deal of string wear, and the accuracy has not shifted or degraded over this time. A rugged, well-designed and very powerful bow with a fast (44 second) shot-to-shot time. The only minor criticism I have is that, unlike some other crossbows, the quiver of the Barnett does not have points that allow the crossbow to be placed on the quiver and stock while keeping the fletchings of the racked bolts clear of the flat surface. The fletchings are smashed when the crossbow is placed on a flat surface on the quiver."

By Mylakfrom ut
"This is the most powerful piece of archery equipment I have ever shot. Accuracy A+++. Easy to shoot. I've shot about 35 bolts thgrough it, and I have gone through 4 strings. Barnett has been good to work with to find out what the problem is. But as of now it is the middle of hunting season and they still have my crossbow."
