Compound crossbows

A compound crossbow: a powerful and practical hunting and leisure weapon

Powerful crossbows have their share of drawbacks. These hunting weapons are quite bulky and their string is sometimes difficult to draw. To overcome these problems, manufacturers had the good idea to invent the compound crossbow.

Their pulley system allows for reduced effort in drawing the string and increases propulsion force. The compound crossbow thus gains significant advantages. It becomes more powerful, with a range of several dozen meters and more accurate shots. The crossbow user can easily rearm it.

Even though it remains a heavy crossbow, its pulleys allow for placing a bolt on the rails without requiring great physical effort as with a recurve crossbow. Thanks to its shooting accuracy, the crossbow is suitable for recreational shooting and hunting (as long as the latter is authorized).

A wide range of compound crossbows from your crossbow specialist

The compound crossbow is very accurate and can shoot arrows at high speed and with great force. Generally, its weight is very well distributed, ensuring optimal stability when aiming. This weapon also surpasses the range of a beginner's crossbow, a mini compound crossbow, or a target shooting crossbow.
