Looking for a crossbow

I might be in the market for an entry-level crossbow. I know bass pro shops has a couple of decent ones which ones do you guys recommend around the $300 price range. Reason I mention bass pro is I have a couple of gift cards that I want to spend.

Barnetts are fine for entry level. Go have a look and figure out what you might like.

Most all of them come as kits with a few bolts and a scope and cocking device, etc.

My first crossbow was a pre-owned Excalibur Bulldog 340 with the old school Matrix limbs. Thing is scary accurate with 3” groups at 50 yds.

The Bruin line of crossbows has been very good to me and I have owned them since 2017, I have the 345, 370 and 410 and all have performed better than I thought they would for the price. Here is the 350 on Ebay for a good deal. https://www.ebay.com/itm/115605945067

Here is another good deal: https://www.sportsmansoutfitters.co...g-380-crossbow-package?variant=40321398472750

Sportsmans outfitters also has a centerpoint for under $300: https://www.sportsmansoutfitters.co...it?_pos=2&_sid=48e2d5444&_ss=r&_fid=2b2d54b47

As stated above…… Hard to be the Whitetail Hunter by Barnett. Barnett has several in the affordable/entry level price range and they kill too. I’d recommend one with a Step-thru riser in whatever model you land on.
