First Look At The SWAT X1 From Killer Instinct

[@masterofmanythings1]

Seems K.I is really doing some good things. I can attest that their customer service response time is phenomenal. Can't wait till my deisel x gets here in a few days.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Diesel X!

[@jerrysitzer3932]

The swat x1 will shoot moon and flat nocks great looking bow

[@davidmoralez5293]

Could you do the killer instinct fatal x crossbow? That is a crossbow that is rarely shown or talked about. And I would like to see more on it.

[@dtrim7450]

Held one in the store, thought it was pretty cool but being able to de-cock after a hunt is a really nice feature.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Decock is nice but the X1 design and accuracy makes up for it IMO. Hope whatever crossbow you buy it serves you well 👍

[@mikekins6545]

I just ordered mine. I can't wait. Thanks for your review.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

You’ll love it! Good luck this season!

[@proudpennsylvanian330]

Really nice bow! Love to try one.

[@tyrant357.]

Nice review. Been looking at this one

[@davidmoralez5293]

Could you review the killer instinct fatal x crossbow? Because that is a crossbow that is really shown and I would love to see more on it. Could you please show that one?

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Hey David! I currently don't have a Fatal X to do a review on and I'm not sure I'll be getting one from KI. I'd love to do a review on one though, I think that is going to be a fantastic bow! Stay tuned, hopefully either myself or someone else gets some reviews out on the Fatal X!

[@momajette8886]

Did you do a review on killer instinct bone collector 415 if not can you do 1 I am new to crossbow and like you videos

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

I do not. Mountain Buck however may have done a review on that one. Glad you like the videos!

[@tygappleberry5571]

What's good,, what's good,, what's good,, check it out,, i throughly liked the video bro,, love the breakdown of the swat X1,, you did a fantastic job,,, You didn't mention a picatinny rail mounted on the top in front of the scope,, which is one of the things I did notice when first looking at it,, lol,, got a thing for the picatinny rail an extra stuff that can be mounted to it,,, lol,,, Definitely like the fact that you and I being as tall as we are that you were able to get a comfortable stance and hold with the X1 even though it's a little bit shorter I have yet to hold it but I have held the XP,, It was definitely a lot quieter during the shot,, I like the fact that they went back to the Half Moon knock as well that gives everyone a lot more flexibility for adding weight,, using light nocks,, As well as nock tuning the bolts,, I will be adding the X1 to my list of the 405 family,, The fierce,, the lethal,, the boss,, fatal X and the X1,, Time to do some homework,, And I am sitting here waiting for the accuracy video,, flight,, Stability,, Actual Speed (if your going to use a chrono,,) things like that,, My girl likes the fact that the X1 is shorter more compact,, it does come in her favorite colors,, She's not being on the camo,,but the black and red,, DEFINITELY,,, the thing that she won't like is that price point,, lol,,

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Thanks, Ty! That small picatinny section on the top of the barrel is (I believe) for the quiver arm. My XP has that same, top picatinny rail and thats where the quiver arm went.

[@tygappleberry5571]

@@draggindeeroutdoors Hi, in another Video i saw the XP is vulnerabel.is that correct?

[@charlesbeaver5665]

Does the X1 have any hash marks/dots on the cams to indicate proper timing?

[@B_r_u_c_e]

Thank you.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

You’re welcome!

[@coryphillips9870]

Hi do they need other guys to try out x1?

[@lorenzogeri4281]

Hi, you don't find it difficult for both models; lubricate adequately for the passage of the rope? Is the X1 less noisy?

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Putting rail/barrel lube on isn't bad, just use a Q-Tip. And yes, the X1 is less noisy compared to the XP (with both shooting the stock, KI bolts).

[@lorenzogeri4281]

@@draggindeeroutdoors Thanks for the answer, do you ultimately think it is a competitive crossbow with other brands of the same price range in precision factors?

[@jerrysitzer3932]

When will they be delivered i herd july 1 is this right

[@bamoore65]

I heard the X1 can shoot flat nocks as well as the half moon

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Yessir! X1 can shoot half moon, flat or KI’s arc nocks

[@bamoore65]

@@draggindeeroutdoors can it shoot the Rhino nock as well? I have plenty of those on hand.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

@@bamoore65 I don't know what a Rhino nock is...so I'll default to the experts at KI. Please reach out to them!

[@bamoore65]

@@draggindeeroutdoors a Rhino nock is a Excalibur flat nock with a anti-dry fire ring on it.

[@charlesbeaver5665]

K I needs to incorporate that stirrup on the x1 to be able to be locked in three different different positions just like the stirrup on the Centerpoint Wrath 430

[@jaysunkreuze1466]

The design of the bow is something superior to top mount bolt designs, but the poundage is too low for the heavier 700+ grains of arrow I shoot. The power stroke is also too short in the name of compactness. I would rather have a 17" power stroke at the lower poundage to make up for it. I really want the x1 but I will have to wait for them to come out with a 440+ fps design with a 400 grain arrow in order for me to switch. These bow manufacturers need to start catering to heavy arrow shooters as speed with light arrows is archery, not hunting.

[@chickimac1]

What grain bolts do you shoot? Thks

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Usually 500

[@chickimac1]

I just bought a swat x1 and figured a 500 grain bolt would be better and prolong limb life. Thks👍😎🏹

[@ovenman991]

Is it possible to shoot half moon nocks out of the xp? If they still used the barrel system??

[@nosoyono1081]

Can you use fixed blade broadheads in that bow?

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Absolutely!

[@Bullpen_banter]

How do you decock the Killer Instinct Swat?

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Gotta shoot it to decock.

[@kevindonahue7355]

Do the limbs separate like the ripper 415

[@artemiocruzdiazjr2782]

Hello, greetings, I hope you are well. I'm wondering my Crossbow Killers Instinct x1 makes a noise when I'm charging it to shoot. Do you think it's normal or something is wrong? It is new and has warranty

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

Hey Artemio! It’s hard for me to tell without hearing the noise. You’re welcome to send a video clip to me on Facebook messenger of you cocking it! Or, don’t hesitate to contact KI if you have questions!

How do you lube the rail if it's internal ?

I put the rail lube on a Q-Tip.

Why do you lube the rail if the string free floats?

What he said. Only way to get it in there

Pwphen did you where they were coimg.. out date

[@underdogoutdoors]

Is this made in the USA? Looks good from what I see. I like that it seems quiet, relatively speaking, for crossbows.

[@draggindeeroutdoors]

R&D, marketing and corporate are in Michigan. Bow is manufactured in Taiwan.

[@edwingrady5287]

After hearing from K.I. I'm more able to understand there problem . They are short staffed and are sending me a new scope. That is customer service. Thus I'm going from 👎to👍
