The cranking device works as described. I find it a little tedious to use, compared to other brands. The handle tends to fall off. Since its a sled style, I am constantly having to work the cords over the scope and back. It can only be used when the stock is fully forward. When target shooting several shots in a row, it begins to be frustrating. Probably when it comes time to hunt it will not be so bad.

First Crossbow
I bought one this year to get out in the woods for bow season. Was able to harvest my biggest buck to date with this crossbow.
I bought my raptor in 2024 just before Christmas and have taken two deer with it so far. It is a nail driver! I love the speed and power. I have noticed the string and cables on the raptor model take a beating so I be plan to replace mine every year. I made my own press in about 30 minutes with some lumber and bolts. I changed out cables and string in 15 minutes the first time. I expect it will be much quicker the next time. The photo shows my bow in the press I made in case anyone wants to copy/improve it. Overall the Hyper Raptor has been a great bow for me so far and Barnett support has been easy to deal with via email and friendly.

Amazing
This crossbow is amazing I've had it almost two years and I've harvested two deer with it so far. My dad has a Barnett and he says he loves it.
