well you say weight isn't really an issue
but I would beg to differ some
as what I mean by weight is when your shouldering the weapon, where the weight is at, can make or break how comfortable it is to hold
and like I said before
the reverse limb X bows, are the ONLY one's on the market that doesn't have so much weight far away from the shooter, meaning them balance the weight more towards your shoulder, keping a TON of less weight way out there
and even when you carry the x bow on a sling, they do not be top heavy
you might not be walking far, but you will still be firing it from the shoulder,
just something to consider
and as for hawk scopes
never really heard of them, and the Arrows,well, sure they are great, but odds are there not needed
to be accurate with an X bow
and sure Easton's bolts are petty straight as well
Factory packages are proven to hold up, thsu why they sell so many
NOT saying an aftermarket item cannot be of better quality
But I know for a fact on SCopes, , many makers use different hash lines/reticle's, so a Factory one is most likely to sight in the most accurate with the hash lines on "X" ranges"
and AN X bow might make more recoil/vibrations, than a rifle scope can handle
its like Air guns, they have to be build a special way, as a just a high end rifle scope on an air gun, the air gun can chew up a scope that would last for yrs on a magnum rifle
its different apples to apples on air gun to rifles recoil/vibrations
and possibly the same deal on X bow
thus another reason to maybe stick with a OEM scope?
just food for thought
