Yes, this device harnesses the most powerful force in existence. It liquidates anything in its path. It can be used to rip apart the fabric of time and space. It can gut material on an atomic level. When the gun is fired the pellet flies so fast that it breaches the light barrier. The oxygen in front of the pellet is condensed so much that it reaches its schwarzchild radius, instantly spawning a black hole. With, almost unlimited density, has a gravitational pull so strong that light cannot escape.

Most states have hunting laws that forbid use of low power rim fire guns such as a .22 calibre. A pellet rifle such as the Silent Cat would be included in this ban. Hunting anything larger than squirrels with a pellet gun would be ridiculous and cruel.

Absolutely it can. All these naysayers on this board don't know what they are talking about. I killed a 32 point with this very gun, after which I ate its liver and testicles raw in a beastly ceremony. So don't let anyone tell you this won't get the job done. It will. Just make sure you hit the deer in a 1mm target circle at the deer's medulla oblongata, at the base of its brain. If you miss, have a field knife ready to chase it down. I've done that too, by the way. Killed a 64 point with my bare hands and a knife. Here is a picture of it just before I plunged my knife into its skeevy little heart. http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h182/curtwood/IMG_1613.jpg Absolutely it can.

I use the Barnett Cranking device. It is a bit noisy, but easy to use. I believe that quick reloading after a miss won't make any difference. That deer will probably be long gone.

No, I would not advise using it for deer. I have already had a squirrel get through it.

It is really a great knife for hunting. My favorite for gutting and processing deer.

I don't know because i could never string the damn thing. Crossbows are powerful enough, but you should check the laws in your state before using a crossbow for hunting.

yes, it is designed for shotgun turkey hunting, when the head and waddle fit in the diamond you know there in range. I own 2 of these scopes and love them, had one since 92, its held up well. Not made for deer hunting.

I really like my sa sports bow. The reading I've done combined with the hunting I've done says this bow would be great for hunting deer or wild pig (with backup short 12gauge like Mossberg 500 or .44 mag in case you wound the animal) or something smaller. I love the simplicity, easy cocking, lightweight and price. If I was hunting bear with a bow I'd step to something much stronger like an excaliber.

is a gun for boys aged between 10 and 15 years, or for people beginners, although it has a great power and long range, if you want to hunt deer of great size is not the right gun, this can serve to hare or other species

It is not if you can it is should you. You can hunt elk with a 223. should you (NO). I have not hunted elk with this but I have found that with practice it is very accurate. I did shoot a large buck whitetail at 50yd. the bolt passed through it side ways and landed 20yd. beyond. I think with a good shot It would take down a elk clean.

Size-wise, it will work on deer. I personally don't like using a knife this large on squirrel or rabbit though. I use a smaller knife for those.

Yes. as long as the bow has atleast a 40lb draw its leagle and powerful enough. for white tail anyway not sure. bout mule deer.

I would not recommend it. Bear bow hunting is dangerous with any crossbow. It you just make the bear angry, it can get to faster than you can re-cock. Having a hunting partner with a large caliber rifle is always advisable even if you have a $2,000 crossbow.

I just bought this and I love it. Pain in the rear to string but it shoots quick. There's no doubt it will kill all small and medium game. It would be able to pierce a deer but I wouldn't push it with a moose. Lol

NO! At best you may wound a deer enough that the wound becomes infected and the deer eventually dies. This is still just a small caliber pellet gun. About the largest animal it can kill cleanly is a woodchuck,

Yes....plenty fast enough. You could range out to 35-40 yards and still have enough energy left for a clean kill. People have killed deer for decades with bows that did not put out the energy this crossbow does.

Definitely as long as you have the right arrows for it and heads. I bought some arrows off amazon that weren't strong enough and when I'd shoot them they would bend severely and take a flight pattern maybe two or three feet off target. I would recommend wooden arrows for target practice and a strong aluminum arrow shaft for hunting so you can put a good and sharp head on it for piercing the animal. Allen Company sells a 31" shaft recommended for 55lbs-75lbs with the broadhead inserts already installed.

No, it is not considered safe to hunt deer with a rifle of this power. It is mainly for pest control and small game.
