crossbow under $300

My boss wants a decent crossbow but is being tight with his money. Any ideas?

tell him to get a slingshot then.

You might find an okay used one for that price. I really doubt there is anything new in that range that's not just a toy.

yep. in that price point, go used. re-string it.

Parker had some excellent c-bows at that price I have 2 Spartan and bushwacker I say had cause I heard they are going out of business but there should be some out there yet

Can't want one too bad.

Breaks my heart I can't use my old Badger long bow anymore. I've been using a extremely old Horton that gets it done. Thank you Pop for willing that to me. DaYooper14 nailed it, go used and get it tight at a place that caters to those that wish to get it done on a budget that fits our way of enjoyment in the blessed woods.

I've killed a lot of critters with a Barnett Recruit. They're under $300.

I worked as an archery tech for a while. For the money the Centerpoint Sniper is a great deal and it falls in your under $300 range.

Get a real bow. xbows are very only for snowflakes.

See, that there shows your a complete ignorant man. There are some of us that have been getting it done, probably before you were a thought. As some of us bad arses age, nature say's, hey man, take that. Republic of CO, lol, you just reinvented the term sissies. Ha Ha Ha.....

X2...Recruit compounds are very affordable and killing machines!

I bought a CenterPoint Sniper 370 last year from Cabelas...under $300. I am simply amazed and overjoyed with the quality and accuracy of that thing. Google the reviews on it!

I have heard good about the centerpoint. That being said I bought my son the wicked ridge warrior ultra light and I am very impressed with it. Now I want the same xbow lol. Shot a compound fingers only no release all my life but now my shoulder says forget it.

Im on my 3rd year with my sniper 370. I think I paid 240 for it good reviews for a budget xbow. The 3 bolts/arrows are the weak point. I'm shooting piledrivers arrows with 100 grain swackers. Harvested 3 nice does this last season. Shots ranged from 20 yards to 40 very accurate off of a good rest

PSE Fang runs right about $300. Comes complete with everything needed to start shooting.

PSE Fang

Bought a PSE Fang for my wife and it is as deadly as the Barnett Recruit but the Fang has a bit more power. The Recruit is much smaller and would be easier to hunt with from a tree stand though. Either one is a great choice.

I’ll second that it’s a good one too I love mine

Watch craigslist, i got a barnett whitetail hunter on sale at walmart for $180. So far its killed 6 deer.

I did have a center point once but i had one of the limbs break and it is very heavy i do not recommend it.

parker is out of business - website shows them as sold out, but if you can find stock inventory somewhere, you should be able to get them at 50% discount or more.

go on ebay. Probably can find a deal this time of year.

I just checked. Some for 300 but if he goes to 400 there are lots.
Quite a few Excalibur models.
