Killer Instinct Crossbows has introduced the new Speed 425 crossbow kit. The kit includes a Speed 425 crossbow which, as its name suggests, launches bolts at a blistering 425 fps, as well as a LUMIX Speed Ring Scope, boasting a 20- to 100-yard adjustable reticle and HD clarity in low-light conditions. Also included in the package are three premium HYPR 20-inch carbon bolts, and an integrated Dead Silent Kit with string suppressors and limb dampeners. Finally, the crank-compatible Speed 425 sports an adjustable five-position stock and forearm, to customize fit for any shooter. To learn more, check out huntkillerinstinct.com. MSRP: $549
