It is not the strongest setup but it work for me.

Where did you get the picatinney rail that the Shot Trak is attached to?
That looks like a pretty awesome scope. Lots of technology which scares me a little....more stuff to go wrong. Let us know how it works out for you!!ccamp200 wrote:So, I have had the same question I have been dealing with - as well as a few others - range finder, night vision for yotes, etc.
I pulled the trigger recently on the ATN X Sight II to try to kill all the birds with one stone. It is on back order so hopefully will get here by early November. Cannot vouch for how it actually works yet but the features are limitless and the videos on line are incredibly cool. Downsides are that it will be heavy - 2.15 lbs (vs weight of traditional scope + gopro + mount) and eats batteries (already got a usb power pack).
Features that did it for me:
One scope for Day and Night Vision
HD Video Recording
Recoil Activated Video (b4 and after shot - doubt this will work on my Excal)
View what scope sees real time on Tablet (for teaching my kids)
Range finder (of sorts)
One shot Zero
Weapon profiles to use on different guns / crossbows - I will be mounting with QD Mounts in hopes of being able to switch out without having to re-Zero.
Other Features that I dont care about:
eBarometer
GPS
Compass
Reviews seem to be both good and bad - often dealing with the users technical ability from what I read - so I am really anxious to try. Have a look and let me know what you think or if anyone on here has had experience with one of these:

On bottom side, where quiver mount holes are. I've mounted a light there before. Worked well, already two tapped holes. Can use picatinny or Weaver mount for Marlin 336( it's flat bottom.)SummitSitter wrote: ↑Tue Oct 18, 2016 5:29 pmHere is a pic of my Tact Zone scope which I'm sure many of you know how it looks...
I would idealy like to mount a camera, whether it's a Tactacam or other similar one, onto the scope. It doesn't look like I will have any mounting area on the scope near the front or rear scope rings. The only area that I could see clamping a mount to would be on the tube near the rear scope cap.
My other option that I'm thinking about would be to use a Munchmount that connects to the front of the crossbow and makes the camera sit above the scope. The Tactacam has an optional picatinny camera mount:
Does anyone use a Munchmount with a picatinny rail for any mounting needs? Where could I purchase a rail that could be used with a Munchmount?
If anyone has any other recommendation on where I could attach a picatinny rail onto the crossbow without using a munchmount, please let me know.
Thanks again for everyone's input.
I have one of these for sale, only hunted with it 3 times. $120 tyd paypal USA. Will post on trading post later with pics if I can get them to load.
