you need to check out the new updates in crossbows.
there is a new Ravin, that copied the compound bow guys. the Ravin Crossbow uses a rail-less system for the bolt. essentially the same concept as the drop away arrow rest that archers enjoy. the cross bow bolt is only contacting the crossbow at the string when you pull the trigger. they are getting tiny tiny groups at 100 yards. my neighbor bought one. 77 year old dude with Cataracts. he pulled it out and aimed at this target..a tiny one in his backyard. i said, "Whoa!! WHOA! what are you aiming at?!!" i was looking over his shoulder and he was gonna punch a hole in something important.
he stopped short and handed it to me. i shot it and the arrow just appears at the target. no watching it rainbow gracefully to the target. it is so fast, it is not seeable by the human eye at that short range.
i want one!! but it is $2500.
