User Guide

This will prevent your hands from being struck by the

string as it travels forward. The velocity of the string

hitting your fingers will cause severe injury.

Unloading your Crossbow

By far, the easiest way to un-cock a cocked crossbow is to fire an

arrow into a target or into the ground away from debris, loose

rocks or other people.

Sighting-In the Crossbow

Using the rear peep sight and front sight pins:

1.) Place the first sight pin near the top of the front sight

bracket.

2.) Shooting at a target from 10 yards, aim for the bulls eye. If

the first shot is above the bulls eye, move the pin up (or down if

the shot is below the bulls eye).

3.) If the first shot is to the left of the bulls eye, screw the pin to

the left (or right if the shot is to the right)

TIP: Move the pin in the direction of the error, follow the arrow.

Continue in this manner until you have three consecutive shots

into the bulls eye. Repeat this procedure with the other pin,

starting near the bottom of the sight bracket. It is

recommended that the bottom pin be sighted in to the 30- to 35-

yard range.

Arrow Selection and Proper Flight

Due to the unique design of your Barnett crossbow, it is

imperative that only specified arrows are used. These arrows

are correctly weighted to absorb the high energy generated by

the compound design. Lighter arrows simulate a “dryfire”

condition and will result in damage to the crossbow VOIDING the

warranty. Barnett’s 20” Carbon arrows are correctly “spined”.

DRY FIRING WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

• Use Barnett’s 20” Carbon arrows with straight, offset or

helical fletches with Half Moon Nock.

• Recommended fixed blade broadheads can be any three-

blade low profile broadhead with a cutting diameter no

larger than 1-3/16”.

• When using fixed blade broadheads, the blades must be

aligned with the fletches of the arrow. This can be done

by placing a rubber o-ring between the broadhead and

the arrow front insert.
