Really solid bolts that last
For the size and quality, these bolts are extremely expensive. I have posted the analysis of 10 units randomly selected from 2 packs of "as received" bolts regarding weight variability in grains.For this price point, the vendor should introduce much improved statistical process control techniques and improved processes, or reduce the price point significantly.I have no way of measuring straightness. However, some of the bolts are noticeably not straight.
Great product
These arrows are extremely lightweight and accurate
Bolts are strong. Shot pigs, missed and hit hard ground the bolts were not affected.
Great product abd fast service
I've been using a variety of bolts for turkey hunting.I've encountered a few issues with both regulator full sized xbow and the handheld. The hunt is a depredation hunt over the winter.It's all on private lands with owner permission. A full size xbow can send a missed shot or ricoshay where you don't want it so a lighter bow and or bolt can increase the safety factor.I'vegone from full sized compound xbow to recurve to bat and now bat reverse. A full sizedarrowwill prevent a bird from flying. The lighter bolts of the smaller xbows don't quite do the job. The bat reverse shoots the boltthru the bird but doesn't anchor them and you might lose the bird.Reflecting the Stinger with turkey wing seems to give me the balance I've been looking for.
Great bolts, tough enough to go through a roughneck truck bed storage container. Fly true and are easy to pull out of 3D target. Just bought twelve more. Definitely recommend for the the bat reverse.
I enjoy shooting my ballista Bat reverse slim crossbow. I’ve killed two deer with it already since I got my new one after the other one had a few problems with it don’t know what it is, but my new one I took two deer very happy.
No one’s got back to me
Incredible product but the information posted about speed is extremely misleading! A bat reverse with a sting bolt and broadhead only shoots238 feet per second. Everything I read said over 300 feet per second. Advertising is wrong!!
Hi Joe,
Thank you for sharing your feedback — we truly appreciate your honest review and are glad to hear you find the STING Carbon Bolts to be an incredible product.
Regarding the FPS, we understand your concern. The speed listed on our website reflects results from standardized factory tests, which are conducted using field points and optimal draw conditions. When using broadheads or different setups, the speed can vary — typically decreasing due to the added weight and drag.
We’ll make sure to clarify this information further in our product description to avoid any confusion in the future.
We appreciate your input and your support for BALLISTA!

amazing product
Good quality, no issues with them
Customized specifically for your ballista crossbow. Great quality and well packaged!
Great quality, quick delivery
This review is on the 16” stings. I installed the 120 grain ss inserts and the added weight seems to make the 13” and 16” bolts fly more accurately/ consistently. Ive been using a cheap “THE HOLE “ target from Amazon . Advice: don’t waste your money on that target. The 13” bolts, with or without ss inserts, bury the vanes completely into the target even at 25 yards.( Nothing sticking out to grab onto to remove.) I ordered the 16” sting bolts and ONLY at 25 yards do the vanes remain outside the target to be removed This is a testament to how powerful the little BAT REVERSE is. If you’re going to target practice I would recommend sticking with the 16” stings and spending the extra money for the BIG SHOT IRONMAN target BALLISTA offers. No worries of over penetration and no ruined vanes.
Quality , lightweight bolts. Only complaint is quite a few of the knocks loosened up upon firing , although that can be remedied with glue. Unlike others , I didn’t have success with broad heads. I tried out some cheap, $1.50 ,3 blade, 100 grain heads from Amazon and the accuracy was terrible. I think the big, 3 plane head competes too much with the 2 rear fletchings on the bolt. I’m going to try some knockoff , mechanical Shwackers from Amazon. They’re supposed to be more aerodynamic and closer to how a field point flies.
Bolts should be stronger.
Strong bolts. Be nice if there where lighted knocks
awesome customer service delilivered quickly. sting arrows and stainless steel inserts work great would like to see ballista offer lighted nocks for sting hunters for accessories
Good quality
Arrows have a heavy insert that accept regular broadheads. With a 100gr 3 blade broadhead it is very heavy. My Mini Striker crossbow pistol had a 4–5-inch drop at 10 yards. I found less drop using a 100gr 2 blade broadhead and better penetration. Less wind drag and cutting surface I guess. I got better penetration and less drop with William tell arrows and 100gr 2 blade broadheads on foam target.
G💯D bolts ‼️👍🏿.. Great with the mini striker crossbow by WTA But they don't fit well in it's new magazine design unfortunately but a great arrows so far
Excellent option for WTA Mini Striker crossbow.
