Shooting Accuracy And Power

Like most of Excalibur’s crossbows, the Ibex SMF is particularly accurate. Pretty much sighted out of the box, a beginner crossbow shooter will achieve very tight groups from as far as 40 and 50 yards as soon as an hour after assembling the weapon. Make sure not to shoot at the same spot from less than 40 yards as you’re likely to start splitting your bolts, it’s that accurate.


Pros:
- Superb accuracy at 50 yard distances and further
- Very powerful and excellent for hunting even the largest game
- Great value for the money
- High quality reticle scope included
- Recurve construction (what can I say, I love my recurves)
- Responsive trigger
- Light-weight
- Comes with a rope cocking aid

Cons:
- None worth mentioning
 

Kinetic Energy of The Excalibur Ibex SMF

When you’re shooting with the Excalibur Ibex SMF, you’re whizzing out arrows at 305 FPS, but how hard do those arrows hit? Assuming you’re using the manufacturer-provided 350-grain Firebolt arrows, you can count on dealing out 73 ft. lbs. of kinetic energy with a point blank shot. For shots beyond point blank range, just deduct 2-3% for every 10 yards past point blank range; for example, a 30-yard shot would have approximately 67 ft. lbs. of kinetic energy. This is enough power to take on large game like elk, wild boar, or black bears, but I wouldn’t recommend this crossbow for tough game like grizzly bears or Cape buffalo.
 

Cocking The Excalibur

Being a 175 lbs. draw weight crossbow, the Ibex SMF is best cocked using a rope cocking aid. This holds true for both stronger and weaker individuals. Luckily, Excalibur provides a rope cocking aid with the package so there’s no need to buy it separately. Make sure to always draw the string evenly on both sides of the crossbow stock to achieve perfect shooting accuracy.
