Mogadore, OH. — TenPoint Crossbow Technologies’ New 2019 Nitro XRT is unlike any crossbow ever produced. Unleashing speeds up to an industry first 470 feet-per-second and generating a jaw dropping 190 foot-pounds of power, the ultra-smooth Nitro XRT generates 25% flatter arrow trajectory, leading to precision down-range accuracy and devastating knock-down power.

“The Nitro XRT is an industry transcending crossbow,” said Rick Bednar, TenPoint CEO. “The industry has never seen a crossbow with this much speed and knock-down power, yet be whisper-quiet, have perfect balance, and deliver a super-smooth shot.”

The Nitro XRT is engineered with a reverse-draw bow assembly featuring a center-mounted riser that provides superior balance. By shifting the riser from the front of the crossbow to its center, the design eliminates the “nose heavy” feel of traditional crossbows, making it easier to hold steady and keep the crosshairs locked on target. The reverse-draw design is also more efficient than traditional crossbows. Drawing the string through the riser creates an elongated power stroke, which generates greater speeds with less poundage, leading to a smoother, lower-vibration shot that is 3x quieter than competing models.

Fueled by RX7-Cams™ and SLING-SHOT™ technology, the reverse-draw bow assembly generates unprecedent power. The innovative cam system rotates an industry leading 404-degrees which powers the DUAL FLEX™ limbs, while the SLING-SHOT technology provides an extra turbo boost to produce record-breaking speeds up to 470 feet-per-second, leading to devastating impacts. Meanwhile, the assembly’s revolutionary Vector Quad™ 4-cable technology utilizes four cables instead of the traditional two for increased strength and stability. Connecting at the cam, wrapping around the turnbuckle, and terminating on the riser, the cable system creates perfectly level cams, generating straight-nock travel and pin-point down-range accuracy.

Sparta, Wisconsin – After an extremely successful year with the SUB-1, Mission Crossbows introduces its 2019 lineup with two new offerings that deliver unmatched accuracy – SUB-1 XR and SUB-1 LITE.

“Last year we set out to improve crossbows in every category starting with accuracy,” said Matt McPherson, Owner and CEO of Mission Crossbows. “We claimed that the SUB-1 was the world’s most accurate crossbow and tournament shooters proved it, winning 41 out of 42 podiums in NFAA, IBO and ASA shoots. This year is all about expanding that proven platform.”

The new SUB-1 XR is designed for speed and accuracy, delivering speeds up to 410 fps with the capability of shooting 1” groups at 100 yards. It features the innovative Benchmark Fire Control technology, which includes a 3-pound match grade trigger, the Easy-Load™ bolt retention arm and the ability to safely de-cock with the push of a button. The compact frame is 9.1 inches axle-to-axle and just 30.5 inches long. With Mission’s uncompromising commitment to high quality materials, the SUB-1 XR delivers the most premium crossbow experience on the market.

The new SUB-1 LITE is the most versatile crossbow in Mission’s line. This user-friendly crossbow weighs in at a mere 6.9 pounds and is incredibly easy to cock, making it a crossbow anyone can handle.
