Was punching out sub .75" groupings on bullseye yesterday with my Barnett Penetrator x-bow at 20 yards, rested. Would this be considered good shooting for a x-bow?

That's not bad at all, I shoot to different dots as bolts for crossbows and arrows for the other bows get expensive when busting them up shooting for small groups.

Shot it again today and grouped them within .5" of bullseye. Really enjoying the x-bow, fast and hard hitting.

Yeah, I shoot different dots because I've already busted up several arrows with my Excalibur Matrix 380.

we used to shoot bottle caps at 20 yards.
this was with a regular bow.
we also would take a 5 dollar bill and hang it up, first one to punch thru Lincoln's face got the bill. we did that at 30 yards
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I learned to rotate bullseyes after it cost me an arrow. These new crossbows are getting really accurate. 1 1/2" groups at 40 yards
