Barnett quad 400

Post by wickedandlazee »

Hi there, i am based in the UK and have just bought a Barnett quad 400. Has anyone on here ever used one and any feedback on performance would be most welcome.

Although it is illegal over here :( i do intend to travel abroad in order to hunt using it

Thanks
May all your shots be clean ones and all your bucks big one :)

I think it's an ok xbow. Very powerful, but it has a harder trigger than an Excalibur.
Aim that thing somewhere else.

I haven't shot the 400 but have a 300 and it actually has a better trigger than my excaliber does, and shoots a little bit faster.

Good Luck.I sold mine after it blew a cable and string in my face after only a few shots.Luckly I was not hurt and luckly I purchased my Exocet with the good advice of the guys at my local bow shop. I also sold my Horton. Excalibur is the only way!
