TenPoint Crossbow Technologies today launched its 2025 crossbow lineup, featuring a handful of innovative new models that continue an industrywide trend toward crossbows that are smaller and lighter than previous generations while offering increased speed and power.Here's a rundown on TenPoint’s new offerings:

TenPoint TRX 26

Billed as “the fastest compact crossbow in the world,” the reverse-draw TRX 26 propels bolts at a blistering 460 fps with 193 foot-pounds of kinetic energy (when shooting 410-grain bolts) from a highly maneuverable platform that measures only 5.75 inches wide (when cocked), 26.5 inches long and weighs only 7.1 pounds. This crossbow is highlighted by TenPoint’s Twin-Riser Technology that debuted in 2024.

The riser design is engineered to be 41 percent lighter and twice as stiff as traditional risers, with the design reportedly reducing riser flex by 70 percent to greatly enhance downrange accuracy. Other TRX 26 features include a custom, 3-pound TriggerTech Trigger; rail-less ZERO-Trac Barrel that eliminates bolt friction and helps shave nearly a pound off the bow’s weight; and TenPoint’s popular ACUslide MAXX, the safe cocking and de-cocking device that keeps the handle securely controlled at all times during the cocking and de-cocking processes, even if your hand accidentally slips off. Other safety features include an ambidextrous trigger safety and a nock-retention groove that allows the user to hear an audible click and feel the engagement of the bolt so he or she knows the bolt is properly loaded.

Available in Vektra camouflage or Moss Green finishes, the TRX 26 comes standard with TenPoint’s RangeMaster 100 2-7X variable-speed scope, three CenterPunch HPX Premium carbon bolts, integrated string stop system, quiver, bow hook and bubble level. The TRX 26 is also available with the Burris Oracle X laser-rangefinding scope that takes performance to an even higher level by allowing users to range targets and instantly receive a calibrated aiming point with the touch of a button.

TenPoint TX 28

Featuring Twin-Riser Technology and a host of other state-of-the-art crossbow technologies TenPoint is known for, the TX 28 is built to get the job done, with bolts flying 410 fps from a crossbow that measures only 6.5 inches wide when cocked, 28 inches long and weighs 7.2 pounds. Highlights include a clean-breaking, zero-creep TriggerTech Trigger for consistent pull every time, Dry-Fire-Preventor that functions as a second safety by preventing the crossbow from going off unless the nock is properly seated on the string, and TenPoint’s ZERO-Trac rail-less barrel that helps eliminate bolt friction and reduce the overall weight of the bow.

The GUIDE-Lock bolt rest system securely holds the bolt while hunting and provides increased stability for pinpoint accuracy, while the crossbow also includes Ten Point’s ACUslide MAXX for safety and easy cocking and de-cocking of the bow. Available in Vektra camouflage or Moss Green finishes, the TX 28 comes with a RangeMaster 100 Scope, three CenterPunch HPX Premium carbon bolts, integrated string stop system, quiver, bow hook and bubble level.

TenPoint Turbo X

The fastest, lightest, most accurate model in TenPoint’s Turbo line, the new Turbo X  is designed to take down deer, turkeys, elk and other game with incredible efficiency. Capable of launching bolts at speeds up to 415 fps, the Turbo X is 15 fps faster than previous Turbo models yet weighs only 6.9 pounds. It’s also capable of long-range accuracy out to 100 yards thanks to the new S2 Trigger, a two-stage, zero-creep trigger that promises a crisp, consistent 3.5-pound pull; new scope struts; and RangeMaster 100 Scope that come with the crossbow.

The Turbo X includes TenPoint’s popular ACUslide, which allows for safe and easy cocking and de-cocking. It’s powered by the MDX Cam system that creates a longer power stroke to deliver enhanced bolt speeds while also allowing the bow to have a lighter draw weight and reducing noise, vibration and limb stress. The bottom line? It’s an affordable, low-maintenance, deadly accurate crossbow model. The RangeMaster 100 2-7X, variable-speed scope offers aim points out to 100 yards, while the scope struts provide a rock-solid foundation, helping to improve accuracy, even at longer distances. The Turbo X is 33 inches long (without the bow hook) and 9.5 inches wide when cocked.



Wicked Ridge Invader M1 De-Cock

Wicked Ridge is TenPoint’s “value” brand, and the new Invader M1 De-Cock certainly fits the bill, thanks to bolt speeds nearing 400 fps, superb accuracy and a relatively compact profile, all at a solid price tag. This crossbow measures 32 inches long, 9.5 inches wide when cocked, weighs just 5.8 pounds and is capable of launching bolts at 390 fps. It comes with the company’s patented, two-stage, zero-creep, D-1 trigger — its smoothest ever — as well as either the ACUdraw De-cock or ACUdraw 50 SLED De-Cock, allowing for safe any easy de-cocking if you don’t fire a shot.

The Invader M1’s power comes from its 190-pound bow assembly driven by VX-5 reverse cams that elongate the power stroke and increase rotation to produce exceptional, same-hole accuracy and those impressive speeds. Other highlights include the lightweight XS Stock that features tactical cutouts to reduce bow weight and improve balance, and safety wings to prevent fingers from accidentally slipping into the string’s flightpath.

TenPoint Stealth 450R

A 2025 dealer exclusive model, the Stealth 450R is TenPoint’s fastest forward-draw model ever, delivering bolt speeds of 450 fps from a platform that measures just 6.5 inches wide when cocked, 33 inches long and weighs 7.5 pounds. Designed to be accurate at long range, the Stealth 450R comes with the RangeMaster 100 scope that provides spot-on aiming points out to 100 yards, along with scope struts that provide a rock-solid foundation for accuracy and in-the-field durability. Meanwhile, the S2 Trigger with Dry-Fire-Prohibitor provides a crisp, 3.5-pound break for excellent shot control. And the integrated ACUslide crank mechanism makes cocking and de-cocking the bow safe, easy and silent. The Stealth 450R comes with an integrated string stop system, bow hanger, quiver and three Pro Elite 400 Carbon Arrows.
