Sub-1 XR
Last year, we covered Mission’s focus on creating a crossbow that holds accuracy at 100 yards, which begat the Sub-1 line.
The brand says its Sub-1 XR can fire 410 feet per second and maintain its standard in tight pattern shooting. This is the most velocity-minded build in the Sub-1 line, and it has room on board for several accessories to extend its shooting function.
Hunters should check out the Sub-1 Lite, or even the original Sub-1. All of them can still place three bolts within an inch from 100 yards.
Lighted Bolts
Mission partnered with Clean-Shot to create a lighted nock so you can track an arrow’s flight in low-light conditions. Each pack of three contains three bolts with the nocks already attached. These work on any of the Sub-1 crossbows.
Precision Level
A big factor for long-range accuracy is shooting level. This add-on can be mounted on either side of the riser so you can see whether your crossbow is level before firing.
Accessory Rail
This rail gives your bow a way to mount a bi-pod, flashlight, or any other universal Picatinny-style accessory.
RSD Crank
Mission Crossbows created this patent-pending RSD, which it claims is the industry’s first-ever silent mechanical cocking device for crossbows. It only takes a few seconds to install (or remove) and helps improve accuracy by using a floating rope pull that applies equal pressure to each side of the bowstring during the draw.
Crossbow Sling
Here’s a simple addition for hands-free carrying in the field. This adjustable strap is made from neoprene nylon with a rubberized back to prevent slippage and comes with one-inch swivels.
M Quiver (3-Arrow)
The M Quiver holds Mission Crossbow bolts, and its foam insert should fit most expandable broadheads and fixed blades 1-1/8 inches and under. It mounts on either side to accommodate your shooting style.
Optics: Sig Sauer BDX Combo Kit
This combo kit of optics is a major add-on ready to go out of the box. It includes a Sierra 3 2.5-8 X 32 Scope with Alpha-1 Tactical Rings Installed and a Kilo 1600 rangefinder.
Sig Sauer’s BDX system is Bluetooth-connected, enabling the matched rangefinder and scope to adjust the holdover point based on the range to your target.
Hard Case
A fully dialed crossbow is an investment of both time and money. Why not protect it with a wheeled hard case?
This SKB hard case is watertight and can cushion your bow and a few accessories with custom-cut high-density foam. The foam can fit any Sub-1 Series crossbow, quiver, and accessories (three cavities).
Elevate Your Setup
If you own a crossbow, chances are you’re into testing its limits and getting the most out of it.
Tournament shooters and hobbyists can improve their accuracy while still enjoying the promise of the Sub-1’s tight patterns from 100 yards away.
For hunters, the quiet draw can reduce your chances of spooking game. And, the hands-free carrying sling and quiver can take some hassle out of walking through the woods.
If you’re happy with your Sub-1 crossbow, but still want a little more, these accessories are the way to go.
