They do hit hard video can't really pick that up was a thud from other side of garden, the weight and the better crossbow is wonderful, I used 180lb pro x bow and a 120lb common type I will try more tests when my order arrives and I can make up more bolts.
That first one really did hit hard. If you say the video didn't pick it up then it must have been like thunder there. I wouldn't want one of those in the groin.
I think a heavy bolt is good with a powerful bow.
I have an old 180lb draw recurve that destroys ally bolts like I'm firing crayons.
Regardless of if it saves you money, getting good at making your own bolts would be pretty useful after the collapse of society and all.
