Ayep looks like carved tip limbs but they also made a 185lb with magtips. Also the camo is later, length of rail would tell ya for sure :!:

My 2001 Emag with mag tips was 185 lb. and shot about 315 fps with 2216 aluminum bolts.

I've got a 2001 Exomag (185#) and that crossbow doesn't took like mine at all.

It also looks like it has carved limb tips.

The camo is not the same..

Mine doesn't have "Excalibur" on the limbs.

2002 is when they first came out with the 200# Exomag.

I'd say the seller is wrong...

The one on ebay looks like a late '90s unit '97 or '98. with that lettering.
New Guy, if your bow is carved limb your shooting just over 300 fps if its a '01 you'll be about 320 with carbons.

i emailed this guy to inform him of the correct poundage and this is what he said. my bow on the scale pulls 201LB and has no problem
shooting 2219s with 100 grain tips 20 inch long at 305
and if you drop it to 400 grain arrows it well shoot
330 thanks Gary Sturgeon

gee thats funny the 2004 exomag 200lb with magtip limbs will only shoot a 350 grain carbon arrow at 331 fps amazing how your 4 year old carved tip limb model will shoot a heavier arrow just as fast?
