Tenpoint TRX 515 Lead

TenPoint continues to find more speed in its high-performance crossbows, and the new TRX 515 shoots arrows as fast as its name indicates. A new twin riser diminishes weight and reduces flex by 70 percent or more. The increased stability of the riser produces tight arrow groups at any range.

A Zero-Trac Barrel reduces overall weight and means no rail for loading or launching an arrow. The arrow has a specialized nock to lock it into the trigger mechanism, with the front end of the projectile sitting on ball bearings and locked in place with a brush.

The bow is deceivingly lightweight, compact, fast and accurate. The premium bow has a TriggerTech trigger with zero creep and breaks like glass. The trigger also features a Dry-Fire-Preventor (DFP) and trigger block safety. The TRX 515 measures 29 inches long and 6 inches wide when cocked, has reverse-draw limbs and a 16-inch powerstroke. The new ACUslide Maxx cocks or de-cocks the bow with 7.2 pounds of pressure.

Featuring a soft-touch finish in Vektra camo ($3,499.99) or Moss Green ($3,399.99), the TRX 515 ships completely assembled in a ready-to-hunt package that includes the following:
• ACUslide MAXX cocking and de-cocking system
• Evo-X Marksman Elite Scope 3.0
• 3-pack of EVO-X CenterPunch HPX Premium Carbon Crossbow Arrows
• Integrated String Stop System
• Quiver
• Bow hook

Member's Hunt: Patience is Tough When You Shoot a Big Buck

My phone still in my hands, I texted my teenage son, who was hunting along the field not far away.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued? Read on about this often unfairly overlooked hunting classic.
