Info on Turbo XLT
New for 2010, TenPoint’s Turbo XLT employs some well conceived engineering concepts and manufacturing techniques to deliver high-end performance and functionality at an attractive price point.
All of TenPoint’s IsoTaper limbs now bond Gordon Composite’s uniweft laminate skin to the compression side of the limb for added durability and performance. The uniweft laminate is fabricated with multidirectional continuous glass fibers.
Evolved from TenPoint’s premium CLS or Compact Limb System models, the XLT or Xtreme Limb Technology design’s most noticeable feature is a radically compact bow assembly, which spans a mere 13.5-inches from axle to axle when cocked.
The XLT design, however, differs from the CLS concept in several ways. The XLT riser is lighter, has more acutely angled limb pockets, and is fitted with 11-inch rather than 12-inch IsoTaper limbs. In addition, unlike the one-piece CLS riser and foot stirrup, the XLT riser comes with a detachable, lighter, coated aluminum foot stirrup.
Fitted with high-performance MR Cams, string and cables with tunable yokes, this sleek and maneuverable 180-pound draw weight power plant delivers a relatively heavy 420-grain arrow at 315 fps, generating 92.5-foot pounds of kinetic energy.
Combining the lighter riser and foot stirrup with shorter limbs and a lightweight molded Verton® stock and barrel assembly, allows the crossbow to weigh in at a very comfortable 7 lbs. 11 oz. Together the bow and stock assemblies make a beautifully balanced crossbow with perfect fit and functionality.
Like all TenPoint models, the Turbo XLT also features TenPoint’s patented DFI (dry-fire inhibitor) and TenPoint’s highly regarded 3.5-pound patented PowerTouch-10 trigger. Equipped with either the ACUdraw or ACUdraw 50, TenPoint’s patented automated cocking units, the Turbo XLT is handsomely double-dip fluid imaged in Mossy Oak’s New Break UP Infinity®.
