With a 350 FPS rating, the Recruit XP, sends arrows at speeds that rival the best top of the line vertical bows in a package that is easy to be pinpoint accurate with. The light 150 lb. draw weight is reduced by half when cocking with the included rope cocking device making this bow possibly the easiest to draw crossbow on the market. The lighter draw weight aids in the longevity of the Recruit XP making it a workhorse for countless shots. If you’re looking for your first crossbow or your last crossbow, look no further than the Recruit XP. It’s the perfect crossbow for hunting, shooting, and training for all ages and abilities. Topped off with an illuminated red/green red dot optic.
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.
Got this crossbow to try this past year after I injured my shoulder and couldn't use my bow anymore. I was pleasantly surprised how light and easy the crossbow was to use. Only issue I had was the sight wouldn't stay zeroed but still got the job done.
Just purchased. Looking forward to my first harvest using it.

Have had one for 6+ seasons . Taken at least 2 deer each season. Changed the string/cables one time and is still shooting strong!
Have put 100 arrows through her. Took a buck at 60 yards and nearly took it instantly.
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.
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.
I’m getting back into hunting after many years. A compound bow just was not going to work for me anymore so I decided to go with a crossbow. This crossbow had what I wanted at a great price point. The assembly was straight forward and I was able to sight it in relatively quickly. I have no plans to take a shot over 20 yds so that’s where I set it. I paired the headhunter arrow with the game crusher broad head and surprisingly the target impact was so close to the field point impact, it needed no adjustment. 3rd time out, I took a 7 point under ten yards from my ground blind. He Mule kicked, ran, and crashed about 20 yds away. You could say that I am satisfied with this crossbow.
