Our testing proved that, as the test rig registered 401 fps on our Pro Chrono chronograph. The NXT 400 advertised speed of 400 fps with a 400-grain bolt very clearly states that it is not an “up to” speed, but rather exactly what you can expect. The NXT 400 comes as a kit with TenPoint’s 3X Pro-View Scope, a 3-pack of Pro Elite 400 Bolts and a 3-bolt Instant Detach Quiver. The ACUdraw reduces cocking effort to only 5 pounds. The company’s ACUdraw crank cocking device comes standard on the NXT 400 and is mounted onto the stock forward of the butt plate. Dual-purpose rubber safety wings reduce vibration and help keep the shooter’s fingers out of harm’s way. The pistol grip, raised cheek piece and rounded foregrip offer the shooter control, comfort and positioning for a better overall experience. Wicked Ridge's thumbhole stock (called Functionally Superior Bullpup) is injection molded using PolyOne’s OnForce material known for its high strength-to-weight ratio. The NXT 400 sports a one-piece stock/forearm unit that starts at the butt plate and supports most of the rail’s length. A compact but stout riser is CNC machined from a solid billet of 7075-T6 aluminum and features a broadhead clearance scoop and large cutouts for reduced mass weight. The pocket utilizes a minimal amount of material to control and align the limbs. The critical limb-to-riser interface is handled by the company’s Tri-Lock limb pocket system, which is CNC machined out of aluminum and black anodized. The 200-pound Dual Flex split limbs measure 12 inches long, are made of Gordon Composites material through a lamination process and are finished in Peak Camo. This keeps cables from crossing each other, eliminates the associated cable wear, results in a balanced cam load and allows for perfect alignment and cam movement for straight nock travel and the elimination of cam lean. Four cables are used rather than the traditional two, with each connecting directly to the cam, wrapping around a post and terminating on the riser - never crossing the centerline of the bow. Wicked Ridge uses its Vector Quad Cable Technology to drive balance and alignment in the eccentric system function. The machined-aluminum dual cams ride on a combination of axles, bearings and bushings for reduced friction and enhanced system efficiency. A longer power stroke also contributes to faster bolts. The string is also drawn from the far side of the cams to add length to the power stroke, which spans 15.5 inches. It all starts with the RX-6 Cam system, designed with a spiral cable groove that allows for greater rotation and increased potential for speed. The NXT 400 is advertised to produce a true speed of 400 fps using a 400-grain bolt. The NXT 400 - Wicked Ridge’s flagship 2021 crossbow - features the company’s RX-6 dual cam system with spiral cable grooves, Dual Flex split limbs, Tri-Lock limb pockets, a molded PolyOne OnForce one-piece stock/foregrip unit, aluminum barrel and a T5 trigger that employs the auto-engaging safety and Dry Fire Inhibitor features. TenPoint is practically synonymous with crossbow hunting, allowing it to pour years of experience, technology and ingenuity into its Wicked Ridge line.
