Serious power and accuracy come standard with this crossbow that uses reverse cams and an ultra-narrow profile for a longer power stroke to achieve astounding results. The Punisher 420 dials up excessive force to flatten big game with 158 ft-lbs in every shot. The maximum speed of 420 feet per second is the tip of the iceberg in this bow, offering pinpoint performance and incredible consistency. Long-distance shots that most bow-hunters are forced to pass up are child&#8217;s-play with the Punisher 420. Effortlessly launch bolts out beyond 100 yards, and every perfectly placed shot will inspire confidence in the bow\u2019s abilities. The Punisher&#8217;s unrivaled maneuverability and surprising silence also excel in tight quarters found in the thickest woods. The bow measures a mere 12 inches from axle to axle at rest and an astoundingly slender 7.5 inches when cocked and ready to rock. All the vital equipment needed for deadly results is included courtesy of SA Sports. Every Punisher 420 ships with a 4&#215;32 illuminated multi-reticle scope, quiver, u-sled rope cocking device, and sling. The first three bolts are included as well. The SA Sports Punisher 420 outperforms crossbows that cost twice as much and redefines the possibilities of a crossbow; this bow is the beginning of a new era in archery performance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.everest.com\/sa-sports-empire-punisher-420-compound-crossbow.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21651 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-300x300.png\" alt=\"Crossbow\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-110x110.png 110w, https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553-380x380.png 380w, https:\/\/www.everest.com\/everestdigest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/SMS_1123553.png 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.everest.com\/sa-sports-empire-punisher-420-compound-crossbow.html\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">SA Sport Empire Punisher 420<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A complete makeover of TenPoint\u2019s all-time best-selling model, the Titan M1 is an incredible 9.5-inches narrower and 30 feet-per-second faster than its legendary predecessor.
