Mogadore, OH. <\/strong>Building upon the overwhelming success of their TRX 515\u2122 and TX 440\u2122 crossbows, industry-leader TenPoint Crossbows recently launched their lightest and narrowest reverse-draw crossbow ever – the NEW TRX 26. Designed with a micro-footprint and low profile at 26.5\u201d short and 5.75\u201d narrow, the TRX 26 shoots 460 FPS and features Twin-Riser Technology\u2122 (TRT), a custom TriggerTech Trigger, a ZERO-Trac Barrel, and a RangeMaster\u00ae 100 Scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen we launched our Twin-Riser crossbows last year, we knew it would change the industry and that\u2019s exactly what they did,\u201d said Phil Bednar, CEO. \u201cFor 2025, we challenged our engineers to deliver this technology in an ultra-compact hunting system and they delivered. At 26.5\u201d short and 6\u201d narrow, the NEW TRX 26 will change the way you hunt\u2013 giving you the freedom and mobility to go further, while packing a stand or the gear you need to be successful and giving you more shooting coverage by reducing the chance for cam or limb contact in the treestand or ground blind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The foundation for lethal accuracy is TenPoint\u2019s Twin-Riser Technology. 41% lighter and 2x stiffer than traditional risers, Twin-Riser Technology is designed with symmetrical top and bottom plates that reduce riser flex by 70% to generate the most consistent arrow flight path for greater down-range accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every facet of the TRX 26 is designed to extract every millimeter of accuracy from the crossbow, including a newly developed, custom hand built TriggerTech Trigger.  Using TriggerTech’s patented Zero-Creep Technology\u2122, this 3lb. trigger features a clean, crisp \u201cbreaks like glass\u201d feel to help improve accuracy and precision. In addition, the trigger\u2019s Dry-Fire-Preventor\u2122 (DFP) functions as a second safety \u2013 blocking the trigger from firing unless the nock is properly inserted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TRX 26 is packaged with CenterPunch\u2122 HPX premium carbon arrows. The nock features a Nock Retention Groove that allows the user to both hear an audible click and feel the positive engagement of the nock to the string \u2013 indicating the arrow is properly locked and loaded in the crossbow. TenPoint CenterPunch HPX arrows weigh 445-grains and feature 15.5% FOC.  Each arrow is inspected for straightness to within .001-inch and each package is weight matched to within 1-grain per arrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An AR-Style Ambidextrous Thumb Safety is conveniently located directly above the shooter\u2019s firing hand and is effortlessly activated and deactivated with the thumb \u2013 allowing the shooter to keep both hands on the crossbow and eyes locked on their game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TRX 26\u2019s rail-less design features the ZERO-Trac Barrel that eliminates arrow friction and combines with Twin-Riser Technology to shave nearly 1-pound off the crossbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring three points of contact, the GUIDE-Lock\u2122 Arrow Rest System captures the arrow during the hunt and provides increased stability for pin-point down-range accuracy. The arrow rests on two ball-bearings is held securely in place by the top-mounted retention brush – giving you ultimate durability, longevity, and maximum precision at any distance.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The combination of the TriggerTech Trigger, ZERO-Trac Barrel, and GUIDE-Lock Arrow Rest System create the most secure, consistent launch platform ever built for a crossbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An incredible 25x stronger than traditional scope rails, the ACU-Lock\u2122 Scope Bridge maximizes accuracy<\/a> and durability for the TRX 26. The full-length, machined aluminum Scope Bridge provides the ultimate foundation for scope stability and allows for more scope adjustment, heavier scope options, and maximum in-the-field durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The RangeMaster 100 offers aim points out to 100-yards. The 2-7 variable speed scope accommodates crossbows shooting between 380-505 FPS. Upgraded glass provides the shooter with improved image clarity and brightness, allowing for maximum long-range accuracy. The scope is finished in matching Vektra\u2122 camo in the camo package purchase option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TRX 26 features the pinnacle in crossbow cocking and de-cocking. Stronger, smoother, and easier to operate, the patented ACUslide MAXX\u2122 features the Auto-Brake Gear System that eliminates the potential of losing control during cocking or de-cocking which can lead to injury or costly bow damage. While cocking and de-cocking with the ACUslide MAXX, you can remove your hand at any point, with no other action required – and the handle will stop in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the TRX 26\u2019s speed is a perfectly balanced reverse-draw design with a 13.5-inch power stroke. The reverse-draw design has many advantages, including:
