I shoot Parker Buck Buster, Ten Point Stealth X2 and BowTech Stryker. Not to get too far off the subject here but I again see posts where shooters say they are switching to a conventional scope with magnification for increased low light performance . A crossbow is a close range weapon. Let's say, in typical hunting situations in the woods, your shot during the last 5 minutes of shooting light will be at 25 yards or much less. Now compare what you see with BOTH eyes open shooting a good quality red dot reflex sight with the red dot's intensity adjusted properly for that shooting condition vs. a scope with 4 power, for example. Keep in mind we are not talking about a deer standing in the field 100 yards away in these conditions. That's a totally different ballgame requiring a conventional scope with magnification for target acquisition. For 15 yard shot in the woods during the last few minutes of shooting light situation I'll take the red dot reflex sight shooting with BOTH eyes open every time. Try it.

BowTech Stryker camo - BowTech Stryker Assault black - Ten Point Stealth X2 - Parker Buck Buster - Excal Exocet 200
No, I'm not a crossbow fanatic ;D
I use only Zeiss Z-Point reflex sights on all of them. IMO this has to be the finest bowhunting and crossbow sight in existance.

Just an update on my Excalibur Phoenix-I sold my Varizone and put the new Lumizone on. Big difference in light gathering capabilities. Sighted in within four shots! Ready to hunt!

I'm playing with two at the moment.
Excalibur Equinox, Lumi Zone scope, Gold Tip bolts, 100 gr Slick Tricks.
Parker Terminator, 3 dot Simmons Red Dot, Carbon Express bolts and Slicks.
Can't say one is better. The Equinox is simpler, allegedly a bit faster. (have yet to chron it). Terminator is smaller better balanced and has super trigger. The Lumi Zone is some scope!
