Price Range: $306.44

 

All Barnett crossbows have been designed to be used for hunting, each model being powerful and strong, with plenty of latent velocity. The result is unparalleled efficiency and effectiveness in the hunting field. Barnett Jackal Crossbow was a model newly-introduced onto the market in 2010. The stock of the crossbow is neatly compact and lightweight, with an enhanced design that provides more comfort for your hand when holding it.

 

This improved comfort is accomplished through the fore-grip being divided. Meanwhile, it is capable of shooting arrows that attain speeds of 315 feet per second, or Fps as this is usually expressed. Speeds such as this are possible due to a combination systems. This includes a cable system and high energy wheels with synthetic string plus a quad limb assembly, all of which produce an enviable efficiency and phenomenal power that can make the crossbow a devastating weapon in the hunting field.

 

Technical specifications of the Barnett Jackal Crossbow include 95 foot/lb ratio of kinetic energy, achievable as the result of the 150lbs draw weight, the 12 inch power stroke and the other innovations incorporated into the design of the crossbow. The overall weight of the crossbow is a lightweight 7.7lbs, one of the lightest crossbows produced by Barnett.  It has stock length of 32.5 inches and width of 26.5 inches. The length of the arrows are 20 inches.

 

Those other newly-included innovations reflected in the modern design of the Barnett Jackal Crossbow model include the super-smooth ADF integral cam plus the MIM trigger, with trigger pull of 3.5lbs as well as the picatinny rail which is a feature of the 2010 model. The idea of adding a picatinny rail is to make it easier to attach the various add-ons such as scopes, bipods or any of the other accessories that Barnett makes for improving the performance of  crossbow.

 

The picatinny rail attaches to the forearm QD swivel stud. Another new innovation is the AVI technology, fitted to the crossbow limbs. AVI is a soft-feel material that has been manufactured to encompass the outside of each of the Barnett Jackal Crossbow’s limbs in order to reduce noise and cut down on any vibration that could detract from the latent energy. A crossbow fitted with AVI technology can reduce the amount of noise by up to 30%.
