I bought mine from here, https://www.outdoorhobbies.co.uk, only problem is they have way to much choise.
I have no affiliation with above shop.

Cheers matey, I have my eye on a few but thought it'd be worth seeing what people didn't want first! What did you go for?

I bought a hori-zone alpha XT, liked the idea of the stealth but then when looking the xt has aluminium rails and is only £15 more don't think it really makes any difference, but a mate and I bought one each so getting different models made sense.

just a few more sites for you to look at, I dont know what you have in mind using this for but we have discovered, the arrows/bolts do take some stopping and at 30/35yrds you can put them in the same hole which means where they stopped once they will punch through and strip the flights off on the second shot, this is using rolled up carpet, as it means you can recover the bolts, into wood and you have to split the wood to get them back.
carbon shafts are the way to go also as ally ones seem to bend upon impact (I have seen some end up corkscrewed after passing through the target)

I have an Armex Jaguar 175lb crossbow that has barely seen any use. I have some spares to go with it.... rail lube, spare strings and three spare packs of bolts (unopened). If you are interested I'll take some pictures later and make a full list of what I have.
