Tarpon Springs, FL – Barnett® proudly introduces its latest powerhouse, the Hyper Raptor GTX™, engineered not just to compete but to dominate. This crossbow delivers a relentless combination of next-generation technology, blistering speed, and precision, setting a new standard for performance and control in the field.

The Hyper Raptor GTX™ is designed for raw, performance-driven power, launching specialized 20″ HyperFlite™ arrows at up to 425 FPS for deep, uncompromising penetration. Its performance is elevated by Barnett’s Halo System, which eliminates cable crossing and cam lean for superior accuracy, and the innovative Rope Hold™ Roller Ball technology, which ensures a flawlessly smooth and even cocking draw every time.

Precision is paramount, achieved through the elite metal-injected molded TriggerTech™ Frictionless Release Technology. This technology provides a crisp 3-lb break, Anti-Dry Fire (ADF), a nock sensor, CNC-machined aluminum flight track, and a Soft-Lok™ Floating Bristle Arrow Retainer for pinpoint consistency. The crossbow’s agility is unmatched, featuring a compact 7.5-inch axle-to-axle width (cocked), a lightweight composite step-through riser, and pivoting limb pockets that shift weight off the nose to reduce recoil and enhance stability.

Built for the discerning hunter, the Hyper Raptor GTX™ incorporates a suite of comfort and customization features, including an adjustable length-of-pull buttstock, a pass-through forend with a Verti-Grip palm rest, a padded cheek rest, finger-safety reminders, and pre-installed string dampeners for quiet, smooth shots. Its striking finish in ‘Ranger Green’ with Barnett’s new ‘Adapt’ camouflage on the continuous fiber-molded, parabolic limbs ensures a commanding presence.

The Hyper Raptor GTX™ arrives ready for the hunt. Each package includes a choice of premium optics: the Barnett 2-7x36mm illuminated scope, the BUKOPS™ X-Factor Laser Range Finder Scope, or the BUKOPS™ Cycloptic-X Scope with PRIME TIME technology. Additionally, the package contains three 20″ HyperFlite™ arrows, a sled-style rope cocking device, a premium 3-arrow side-mount quiver, and lubrication wax. Its single-bolt assembly means minimal setup for maximum time in the field.

Barnett’s Hyper Raptor GTX™ redefines high-performance hunting, offering the perfect balance of devastating power, intuitive control, and rugged reliability to ensure every hunter shoots with supreme confidence.

Weatherby Launches New Fast-Twist 25 Caliber Cartridge

Weatherby continues to lead the industry in cartridge innovation with the introduction of the 25 WBY RPM (Rebated Precision Magnum) the newest addition to the RPM family. Designed to deliver true magnum performance from lightweight, compact rifles, the 25 RPM reinforces Weatherby’s position at the top of the mountain for quarter-bore cartridges.

Weatherby has always been known for pushing velocity, energy, and ballistic efficiency beyond what shooters expect. With the 25 RPM, that legacy continues. Built on the same proven design philosophy as the 6.5 RPM and 338 RPM, the 25 RPM is engineered specifically for the Mark V 6 lug action, delivering exceptional performance without the weight and length of a traditional magnum platform.

At the heart of the 25 RPM is a modern case design featuring a rebated rim, minimal body taper, and a 35-degree shoulder. This geometry increases usable case capacity while improving efficiency and consistency. By slightly shortening and refining the proven RPM case design, Weatherby optimized overall cartridge length to support today’s heavy for caliber, high BC bullets without compromise.

The result is a cartridge that thrives with fast twist rates (1:7.5) and long, sleek projectiles. The 25 RPM is capable of pushing a 133 gr Berger at 3,000 feet per second, delivering flatter trajectories, higher retained energy, and superior downrange performance compared to legacy quarter-bore cartridges. When compared to popular alternatives like the 25 Creedmoor, 25-06, and 257 Roberts, the 25 RPM offers a clear ballistic advantage.

“It’s been 80 years since my grandfather introduced his favorite cartridge, the 257 Wby Mag. Rather than updating the all-time “King of the Quarter Bore”, we felt it was fitting to introduce the 25 WBY RPM alongside Roy’s favorite cartridge with the purposeful intent of loading heavy for caliber bullets that are now so readily available. The end result will be an unstoppable pair of 25’s!” -Adam Weatherby, CEO Weatherby Inc

Versatility is another defining feature of the 25 RPM. While it excels with heavy, high BC bullets for long-range hunting, it is equally capable of spinning lighter projectiles at speeds exceeding 3300 feet per second. This balance makes the 25 RPM an ideal choice for hunters seeking a do-it-all quarter-bore cartridge that performs across a wide range of game.

At launch, factory ammunition will be offered in multiple configurations, including a 133 gr Berger, 117 gr Barnes LRX, 117 gr Hornady SST, and 107 gr Tipped Hammer HCB. Brass will be available for reloaders.

See Ballistics Here

The 25 RPM will be available in both Weatherby Mark V and Model 307 rifles, making it one of the most accessible new cartridge launches in company history. With rifle options starting at an approachable price point, shooters can experience cutting-edge cartridge performance without compromise.
