Axe Crossbows AX440


The next evolution of Performance Optimized Crossbows by Axe
Superior, WI –Breaking the perception of conventional crossbow performance Axe® Crossbows continues to define Performance Optimized with the introduction of the AX440.
Leveraging the development process of the AX405 where thousands of hours in research and development resulted in configuration that widely departed from average in look, feel and efficiency of traditional crossbows the AX440 is special. With these industry-changing principals as the fulcrum of performance the AX440 continues to advance.
At a maneuverable, stable and easily shouldered 30.5-inches long and less than 12-inches axle-to-axle (cocked) the weight of the 440 is centered over the shooter’s hand by way of a balanced shoot-through stock and riser design and reverse limb system. This configuration empowers the most efficient part of the split limb system from just 15 inches of power stroke to launch bolts at 440 feet-per-second. The proprietary Axe cam system is linked by cables that run parallel to each other, rather than from the top of one cam to the bottom of the other. This unique configuration eliminates cam-lean, limb torque and is further enhanced by an exclusive cable brace that engages the riser to aid in the limitation of flex away from the center of the crossbow. When combined, these features center the string to move along the same plane throughout the entire power stroke. Read more
