john mc Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Just read the specs for the new 2015 excalibur micro 335. It has a draw weight of 270 pounds. NYS regulations allow the use of crossbows between 100 - 200 pounds. So, before you purchase the new excalibur micro 335 be advised iT can only be used legally to target shoot.

MACHINIST Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 You better throw a warning up for half the crossbows out there then!! Good heads up but from what I have seen doing research over half the crossbows out there are over the 200lb limit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CvaBob Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I don't own a Micro. That said when I researched I bought a Chaos by CamX. I challenge anyone to find a crossbow company that does it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I have the barnett raptor, it has a 150 pound pull and shoots bolts at about 330 fps. More than enough for a deer. No problems with it so far except the scope that came with it is not very good and needs to be replaced. I can understand having a minimum weight but I don't understand why only a 200 pound limit? Guess that's what happens when people make laws about things they know nothing about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
