Installation and Correct Usage

Stringing an 80lb crossbow requires a specific technique. We strongly recommend using a crossbow stringer or seeking assistance from a second person to safely flex the limbs while you seat the loops into the limb tips. Ensure the string is perfectly centred. This replacement is designed for target practice and recreational shooting with an effective accurate range of approximately 20 metres.

Did You Know?

The Cobra-style pistol crossbow is famous for its self-cocking lever system. Because the string is pulled back under high tension across the rail every time, the serving (the protective wrap in the middle) undergoes more stress than on a standard longbow. Keeping a spare string in your kit is essential for any serious enthusiast.

Maintenance Guide for Longevity

  • String Waxing: Apply string wax regularly to the exposed fibres to prevent drying and fraying. Do not wax the centre serving.
  • Rail Lubrication: Keep the crossbow rail lightly lubricated with rail lube. This reduces friction against the string, significantly extending its life.
  • Storage: Store your crossbow in a cool, dry place. Extreme heat can weaken the synthetic fibres over time.

What to Avoid

Never dry fire your crossbow! Firing without a bolt loaded causes the energy to snap the string and potentially shatter the limbs. This is the most common cause of crossbow damage. Additionally, avoid using bolts that are too light, as they do not provide enough resistance for the 80lb draw weight.

Recommended Accessories

To get the most out of your purchase, consider adding a pack of 6.5-inch aluminium bolts, a tube of specialist string wax, and a high-density archery target to your order. These items work together to ensure your equipment remains in top condition for years to come.
