Excalibur has introduced the TwinStrike crossbow with DualFire technologythe first crossbow to feature the ability to fire two arrows in milliseconds. The new TwinStrike provides two arrows locked and loaded for a second shot opportunity, without the hassle of reloading.

To achieve this, the TwinStrike utilizes two, independent four-pound match-grade triggersthe front fires the top rail, while the rear fires the lower. This over-under rail system is balanced, utilizing an external Charger EXT crank. The company claims this system will provide double-arrow accuracy at 50 yards, with 1.5-inch groups below and beyond 50 yards. Finally, CeaseFire technology works in conjunction with Excalibur's Rhino Nock to ensure the bow will not fire until an arrow is loaded.

For more information on this new technology, and the 360-fps crossbow it makes its debut in, please visit excaliburcrossbow.com. MSRP: $2,222.22
