Mogadore, OH. TenPoint Crossbow Technologies’ recently launched their NEW Havoc RS440 XERO – combining the industry’s fastest crossbow-per-inch with the most advanced aiming system on the market to create the most accurate long-range crossbow ever. Delivering supercharged speeds up to 440 FPS and the revolutionary ACUslide™ cocking and de-cocking system, the Havoc RS440 XERO is equipped with the new Garmin Xero® X1i Rangefinding Scope to provide exact aiming at any distance for unmatched long-range accuracy.
“Our new partnership with Garmin mates the worlds most advanced crossbow with the most advanced crossbow sight on the market,” said Rick Bednar, TenPoint CEO. “You’ve never seen a crossbow package like this before - and like our other ACUslide crossbows it offers silent cocking and safe de-cocking.”
The NEW Garmin Xero® X1i crossbow scope with built-in laser rangefinder is the first of its kind.
“Garmin is proud to pioneer the best crossbow aiming solution available to hunters today. Xero X1i Crossbow Scope isn’t a step forward; it is a leap forward for crossbow hunters who demand the most out of their hunting systems,” said Dan Bartel, vice president of global consumer sales. “For those wanting the ultimate in crossbow performance, we are excited to work with TenPoint, the leader in crossbow technology, to provide an integrated Havoc RS440 Xero package.”
The auto-ranging digital scope with 3.5X magnification automatically measures distance to a target. A single button press lets you range game up to 250-yards away and reflective targets up to 500-yards away.
Precise illuminated aim points automatically adjust for both distance and brightness conditions to allow you to see your target, unobstructed by reticle patterns. The days of “gap-shooting” with multiple aim points are gone, you need merely to range the target by way of the built-in touchpad on the grip and use the single aiming solution provided by the Xero® X1i.
The Laser Locate™ waypoint projection feature works with compatible Garmin devices (sold separately) to show you exactly where the target was located when the shot or range was taken, so you can better track game or find bolts. In addition, the scope allows you to create custom bolt profiles with unique aim point stacks for each setup, while its Target Lock and Steady Shot features assist with ranging and aiming performance to help improve accuracy.
The Havoc RS440’s NEW ultra-light, two-piece TEC-TACTICAL™ stock is custom built for a perfect fit with the Xero® X1i – featuring a built-in range button in the pistol grip that allows the shooter to aim and range without removing their hand from the grips, as well as a custom pocket below the trigger box that integrates the scope’s trigger cable into the stock to prevent snagging. In addition, the new stock features a tactical-styled butt stock, as well as a custom elevated cheek- piece for perfect eye level alignment and a 1” adjustable butt plate for length-of-pull adjustment. It also includes a hollow pocket that houses the ACUslide cocking and de-cocking system.
The ACUslide features the company’s groundbreaking Auto-Brake Gear System, which allows for silent cocking and safe and controlled de-cocking of the crossbow. The Auto-Brake Gear System eliminates the potential of losing control which can lead to injury or costly bow damage during the de-cocking process. While de-cocking with the ACUslide, the user can remove their hand from the handle at any point, with no other action required - and the handle will stop in place. The 6-inch XTEND Adjustable Crank Handle reduces cocking effort to 5-pounds and stores securely into the butt-stock.
This crossbow’s reduction in length to just 26.5” overall is accomplished with the development of TenPoint’s NEW 16-inch -MICRO-TRAC™ barrel. The fluted aluminum barrel reduces the flight deck surface by an incredible 50%, increasing accuracy and providing string life in excess of 1,000 shots.
The Havoc RS440 features a patented reverse-draw bow assembly that draws the string through the riser, creating a 13.5-inch power stroke. The increased power stroke generates more speed with less draw weight – creating a smoother, quieter shot. The elongated power stroke also keeps the arrow nock engaged with the string before release – this is a critical component in performance, as the longer the nock remains engaged with the string, the more accurate the crossbow will shoot. In addition, this center-mounted riser provides superior balance, eliminating the “nose heavy” feel of traditional crossbows and making it easier to hold steady and increase accuracy.
The RX7-Cam™ system rotates an incredible 360-degrees to produce speeds of 440 feet-per-second. The crossbow’s revolutionary Vector-Quad™ cable technology utilizes four cables instead of the traditional two which eliminates cam lean and generates straight-nock travel leading to same-hole downrange accuracy.
The Havoc RS440 XERO features the company’s S1 trigger. This 2-stage, zero-creep design features an advanced roller-sear system that delivers a consistent crisp, 3.5-pound pull. The trigger is equipped with a DFI™ (Dry-Fire-Inhibitor) and is fitted with a nylon-filament arrow retention brush that improves arrow grip and alignment to reduce noise and vibration. An integrated string stop system is also included to further reduce noise and vibration.
The crossbow measures only 26.5-inches (w/o stirrup) long, 7.5-inches wide, and shoots a supercharged 440 feet-per-second with the included 400-grain arrow EVO-X™ CenterPunch™ 16 carbon arrow. Unlike competitors short crossbows using 20-inch arrows that hang over the front of the bow by 2-3-inches, the CenterPunch16 16-inch arrow is a perfect length for the 26.5-inch long Havoc RS440 Xero.
The Havoc RS440 XERO comes with the new EVO-X CenterPunch 16 carbon arrows. The 16” arrows weigh 400-grains and feature 17.5% FOC. Each arrow is inspected for straightness to within .001-inch and each package is weight-grain matched to within 1-grain per arrow.
Decorated in Veil Alpine™ camo, the Havoc RS440 XERO ships completely assembled and includes a Ready-To-Hunt package.
The package includes:
