[QUOTE="overboard, post: 397699, member: 6547"] Just found something that I found to be interesting, and others have hit on it in a round about way. Kinetic energy required for specific game. <25 ft. lbs.- small game (rabbits, groundhogs, etc.) 25-41 ft. lbs.-medium game-(deer, antelope, etc.) 42-65 ft. lbs.-large game- (elk, black bear, wild boar, moose, etc.) >65 ft. lbs.- toughest game (cape buffalo, grizzley, etc.) SO: the Matrix 380, @ 112 ft. lbs. plus, should be able to take down a cape buffalo! NO ME!!! :lol: This is right out of the Excalibur manual, so it verifies that you don't need a crazy fast, high poundage crossbow to get the job done on a deer, as others are also saying. Just a little extra info.! [/QUOTE]
