The Montana is perhaps the best bow out there for the price. However, it is a must to replace the arrow rest and put on a decent string to get the best performance it can give. I have 2 montanas and have spent many many hours shooting and tuning them. If I were on a strict budget and could buy one bow to hunt any thing on the planet (except the Big 5), it would be a 60# Montana. It's an above average performer,quiet, and very accurate. Try a 7 1/4 brace height and 1/2 inch nock for starters in tuning. Easton legacy 2018 shafts work great with that bow too. I have a couple customs, and I think the Montana is just as good as most any bow out there for a solid functional hunting bow.
