If you are looking for top of the line Barnett Predator, Ravin 20.


If you're gonna be stupid you better be tough.

I’ve got a Ten Point and really like it. Only downside is using their Omni-nock bolts, which I have to order online.

For the the money, you can't beat the Center point sniper 370. $200 Go to Crossbow Nation and look at the threads on it, it'll have all you need to know it there.

I second this. Unless he just feels like spending more money, this one is hard to beat.

There's a guy on there that offers a trigger upgrade for $ 80, bought one last year for my gf and am very pleased with it. It killed an 11 point scoring 148 5\8, the bolts that come with it are pretty much junk as well as the scope but you can upgrade everything easily and have a great show for far less than a Raven.

I got one also! It's about 3.5lb now and very short LOP. Really like it. I found a steal on a Ravin R25 scope which has great glass and illuminated reticle. Also upgraded arrows. I got the bow for "free" with gift cards I had been saving so only money I spent was on the upgrades. I'm gonna shoot this one until it falls apart.

BTW, OP.... I'm sorry to hijack your post with my review!

I'm sure the centerpoint is a fine crossbow, but to say with a few upgrades its just as good as a Ravin, well I find that hard to believe.

Who said it was just as good as a Raven? I must've missed that part.

I have a centerpoint 370 as well. It’s well worth its price and with some upgrades would be plenty of now.

I hava a Ravin R9 and it's a tack driver. Nice feature is the ability to de-cock it silently. It comes with a top of the line illuminated scope. Once zeroed at 20 yards, it's got stadia lines all the way out to 100 yards.

Well, I guess nobody said it, but some were acting like it was. The reviews I read, said it was a good beginner crossbow. I guess its according to what your looking for.
