I ain't never held or shot either one of them. To be honest i will never touch one while i am alive. Don't get caught up in that speed game friend. I hunt with an old carved tip vixen that shoots at its best 254 fps & with my regular hunting arrow 245fps. Have killed a good many tick toters with it. There are a good many more fine CB's out there just little good advice

There's a slew of xbow forums, in reading them you should note which companies have most and least problems.
I had a Quad blow up while trying to get better than 3" groups at 20 yds w/ field points, fwiw.
