I’m going to say this about the Swat X1. It’s by far the best design crossbow out there. However, you won’t be able to use it due to constantly replacing limbs. My uncle is on his 3rd set in less than a year and has yet to sit in a stand. I wish Ten Point would buy this patent and make it right. It would be the #1 selling bow! Until then, buyer beware.
I have the boss 405 wt upgraded scope Lumix IRE. Dead silent Crank and a sling and I shoot victory x bolts. I have had it a year mite have shot it 5 times . I shoot my compound bow all the time
Bob and Kevin, excellent review. I particularly like the Fatal X. I have a question for you guys. Perhaps you read these comments. over the last three or four years crossbow manufacturers have trended toward these smaller bows. In particular Ravin with the R26 and now Killer Instinct. It seems to me that these small bows would tend to put the shooter in a cramped position. I recently shot the R26 and although i know that it's a well made bow, I felt that it forced me into a cramped, uncomfortable shooting position and I'm only 5"7. How do you guys feel about this trend? Which of the two did you guys like best, the Fatal X or the Swat?
We love the idea of smaller bows... this allows for the use of this bow in many more places. However some of them still make larger bows at lower costs and this gives that option to those who don't need small areas.

I shoot 550 grain bolts with over 100 shots no problems in cold weather factory bolts are too light
I have pile driver 22 bolts with 125 grain field tips for the fatal you think that's good
Can you please do a video on swat X1 maintenance and lubricant
I'm really interested in the swat. But the reviews on the limb issues got me a little nervous.
I issue for us yet
Cool another killer instinct where the limbs explode
Swat x1 no is joke
Y’all save your money the swat x1 is junk I have had 2 limbs break cables snap an bolts don’t last in the bow
Looks like the fatal x is faster
X1 is the shit
It ain’t the shit it’s a pile of shit lol I have had 2 of them. They won’t stay together
Shoot heavy bolts I have had mine for a full season turkey and deer no problems super accurate
