The all new Explorer line, just announced by Barnett, will include three crossbow models—the XP370, the XP380 and the XP400. With durable laminated limbs and high-energy cams, a 13.75-inch power stroke and potent draw weights, the Explorer line pairs speed with high levels of kinetic energy. Buttstocks with adjustable lengths-of-pull and pass through foregrips make the ergonomics of these bows widely accessible to the full range of shooters. In the field, the bows are between just 31- and 34-inches long and 13.3-inches wide when cocked, making them compact and maneuverable no matter the environment. For safety, the bows are equipped with Anti-Dry Fire trigger systems, ensuring the bow only fires when you want it to. Its function is further enhanced by TriggerTech frictionless release technology, for a lighter, crisper pull. 

Barnett's Soft-Lok Floating Bristle Arrow Retainer secures bolts in place against the aluminum flight track, while three Picatinny rails offer multiple options for mounting the 4X-32mm multi-reticle scope, or any other accessory. Finally, track-mounted string dampeners and an anti-vibration foot stirrup help reduce noise and vibration for a quieter, more accurate shot.
