Moose or elk

Yep. Easily.
There's a fella on the Excalibur Forum called VixenMaster who has taken literally hundreds of big game critters with his over the years.

As you likely know, these bows are insanely accurate.
Coupled with the right arrow & broadhead, that's a recipe for success! :-D

ENJOY!

Quality broadheads too.. Not the Wal-Mart made in China junk

I had a 150 lb crossbow that would always pass thru deer no problem. I wouldn't have had any issues to use it on an elk or moose out to 40 yards. I sold it because I wanted a compound bow, the crossbow got boring after a little while.

This bow will take down any big game animal as long as your shot placement is in the boiler room,,shot placement is the key
