RE: Ain't she sweet?
that looks just like mine... 
what do you think of that barska sight? I've kind of written off single reticle sights for my crossbow, red dot or otherwise, but the crosshair reticle that barska is capable of producing looks kind of interesting, too bad they dont makesome smaller,mutipoints integrated into the existingcrosshairsof that sight, I'd have to give one a try...

RE: Ain't she sweet?
I bought the Barska for a 22 handgun, decided to try it on the bow. At less than $70 it's worth the try. It's got four reticules, including a crosshair and a dot circle that (may) be useful in determining trajectory shots. Will try this tomorrow. This is my ''fun bow'' the hunting bows are both topped with LumiZones.

RE: Ain't she sweet?
The good thing is it's got 4 reticules...tht's also the bad thing. Each reticule seems to shoot to a different spot. I said seems becasue it's quite windy tonight, will try it again and with GT/inserts 2" Blazers.
Found out that I can use the crosshair reticule for trajecrory shots. When sighted right on at 25 yards, the arrow hits the designated target at 35 byards if the bottom of the crosshair post is used as the aimpoint.

KLS, see this one on Midway USA. Just traded mine for a scvope for Smoke's Ruger 44 mag, lol. It's no Bushnell but it worked great for me, had one selection that was dead nuts at 20 and 30. Wouldn't work w/ Miller quiver mount btw.

RE: Ain't she sweet?
I'll check that out. Not likely I'll be shooting much at 40 with this bow...except targets. The Cyclone has a 6" drop at 40, that's nuts-on using the first aimpoint down from the +.
