Ya, someone told me this yesterday, that's awesome. Im pretty excited to see how this new Excalibur pans out reliability & accuracy wise. If its even half as accurate as my BD400, its going to be amazing.
I think everyone who has shot this so far agrees, at 450Grn this is the most accurate Excalibur to date. Certainly my findings. I'm finding I have to actually TRY to not Robinhood. It's same hole accurate.
 
It's 16" and a higher comb. Designed to be more forgiving to the large optics that are all the rage today. I'm 5'9 and have no issues with it. Altho it's a drastic change from the old style Excal stocks
That brings up a good point and I guess only time will tell when someone ventures to get this bow and put an Oracle X on top of it. I've read too many times the Rev-X / Oracle X pairing is not a good marriage. Real curious as to how this Hybrid-X will handle an Oracle X. As for the Zulus, I don't think I've even read anywhere where someone has tried a Zulus on the Rev-X. Could be wrong on the Zulus comment, just don't remember reading anything about that pairing.
 
You've been caught up in the same vortex a thousand times in your life just like anyone else, whether crossbows or anything else is the subject matter. Say you haven't, without saying you haven't. :LOL:
Strykezone 380 ... TruGlo Titanium 4 blades, Tooth of the Arrow, Hawk Crawler cart, Sidewinder cocking aid, etc., etc.... 😂 Never an Excalibur or recurve though. :p;)
 
One day I mite try it but figured the idler/rollers bein on ball bearings (like they do for cams) wouldn't add any drag BUT since the string/cable changes direction twice, it mite reduce cockin effort by more than twice since simple rope block an tackles reduce effort by twice with every directional change AND the front idlers bein out at the end would effectively lengthen the power stroke without the need for uglt butt backwards limbs. Fun to think about these things an if I had the equipment, I'd have tried it (an maybe failed) already. 🤔
Love your thinking Jack. The industry needs more minds like this :cool:
 
LOP doesn't look that bad in the video, now to find one within a hours drive be the next thing!
I'm 6'3" and long-armed, that 16" LOP won't bother me one bit, whether on this bow or a Rev-X.
 
Different color options would be nice - I.E. BLACK!!!
 
Recurve limbs, cams, RDX design. I wonder how you would work on this model? How would you press it with narrow limb tips and reverse draw design? Like the other Excalibur crossbows using a shorter string? Should be interesting as more is known. I have a feeling it is going to go the way of the TwinStrike.....a curiosity with limited sales.
