The Wildcat CX builds on the proven Wildcat platform with a lighter, narrower, and more maneuverable design. Launching HeadHunter™ arrows at speeds up to 400 FPS, it delivers serious hunting performance in a compact compound crossbow built for tight spaces and demanding conditions.
An AVi™ Fold-Away foot stirrup shortens the overall profile to just 32.5 inches, while the crossbow measures only seven inches axle-to-axle when cocked. A streamlined single-bolt assembly makes setup fast and simple, so the Wildcat CX can be ready for the field in minutes.
The package includes a 4x36mm multi-reticle scope, a Wildcat-specific sled rope cocking device, two 20-inch HeadHunter™ arrows, and a lightweight side-mounted quiver. Pre-installed limb and string dampeners help reduce vibration and noise for a smoother, quieter shot.
A smoke-gray machined composite stock is paired with soft-touch textured grips and cheek pieces for a secure, comfortable hold. Compact, lightweight, and built for reliable performance, the Wildcat CX delivers the speed, control, and maneuverability hunters expect from the Wildcat name.
FREE $200 CUSTOM TRIGGER UPGRADE (INCLUDED)
The Frictionless Release Technology™ creates a free-floating roller between the sear and the trigger – offering a smoother, lighter trigger unlike anything else on the market. Nock sensors and anti-dry fire give you peace of mind for double the safety, and a three-pound, zero-creep release gives you confidence to make the shot. Once you go TriggerTech, you’ll never go back.
Purchased this in August for the upcoming season. Strings popped and now I can't find replacement strings or cables. Barnett doesn't offer them. Don't buy this until they have the supplies to support it.
Bows nice I’ll give Barnett that..,finding replacement parts is an absolute nightmare!!!! Can’t even offer specs for string
I have had nothing but trouble with my, wildcat cx crossbow. Worse than that I can't get any help from the dealer (Barnett.) I have been calling and emailing the company since Wednesday and have not received any contact from the support team. I will never buy anything from Barnett again
Impressed with the speed and accuracy. Very happy with this purchase.
Shoot this bow 4 times with the provided bolts. String blew up. Can’t replace it apparently. Looks like it’s out for the season before the season even started

First of all, I have been crushing this archery season with this crossbow. I've used 100 and 125 grain fixed and mechanical broadheads on whitetail deer within 30 yards. I harvested two does and two bucks with this crossbow. It flat out works. BUT this is the second crossbow. The first one had a center serving issue meaning it was fraying and separating after only about 20 shots. Cabela's replaced the entire thing. I was using whatever rail lube I wanted (some aftermarket stuff). Later I emailed Barnett after receiving the replacement to ask about the crossbow wax stick that came with the crossbow. They confirmed no rail lube is needed. I should use the crossbow wax as prescribed. Ever since doing that, following manufacturers guidance, center serving is still in great shape in at least 20 shots. Probably more. So probably my own fault the first one had issue :(
Purchase the flight retention spring because because the brush that holds the bolt on my brand new Wildcat does hold the bolt on the rails enough to guide the bolt , Was luck to hit a foot group at 20 yards. Call Barnett and Mary was to speak to her shooter and call or text me and instead just drop the ball , But after installing it I was able to hit a quarter inch dot at 20yds consistently. Had to drill and tap the scope rail to install it
This is my first crossbow ever and i’m very happy with my purchase. Bow shoots super fast, quiet, and VERY accurate. Included scope is nothing special but it works well, holds zero and has been reliable. I take this thing to the range and I can nail 1 inch groups all day from 25 yards. It’s almost not fun because of how easy it is to shoot accurately. Got my first deer with it this year, it was a complete pass through heart shot from 32 yards. I don’t have anything to compare this bow to, but I can tell you that this bow works exactly how it’s supposed to. I would highly recommend.
Purchased two packages of strobe crossbow arrows at Cabellas. Attempted to sight in crossbow with them about a week later. Upon firing one of the arrows a second time I found the nock to be missing. A second arrow in the bunch of six total would not light up when fired. I contacted customer service and they sent me out a brand new replacement package of three arrows no wuestions asked. On top of this, these arrows are by far the most consistant arrows I have ever used. Amazing product and amazing customer service.
I got mine for $319 and it’s awesome. I ordered the crank for it because I have wrist problems. My center serving is showing a tiny amount of wear but far from needing a new serving. Factory scope is good enough for hunting deer to about 40 yards but you will need a better scope to see the full potential of this crossbow. Give it a good scope and good bolts and you will love it. I think it should come with 3 bolts instead of 2. Jim Walton I have a bunch of videos featuring this crossbow on my YouTube channel Backyard Broadheads. I wish I had more time to shoot it more.

The bow shoots fine ,however, the stirrups should be larger, whereas just the toe of my boot fits in it....the scope is terrible, whereas it doesnt gather enough light and the left to right adjustment is backwards
