Columbus, OH - VANGUARD, one of the global leaders in high-quality hunting accessories, today introduced airline-approved hard cases loaded with features that take protection to the extreme for bowhunters. They were introduced at the Archery Trade Association Trade Show 2010.
"VANGUARD's product development team includes avid hunters who led the development of X-Vault and Saberlock cases," said Dana Barnier, VANGUARD USA National Sales Manager. "The result? Hard cases that are designed to securely fit today's latest bow designs coupled with maximum-protection features for the hunter who's always on the go."
X-Vault 86C fits today's modern crossbows and provides reliable protection during travel. It's o-ring sealed for water, dust and dirt resistance. X-Vault has a durable construction with upper and lower lids as one solid piece of black high-density polyethylene. Just over 15 pounds, it's lightweight, yet provides high-performance protection against rough travel. All-terrain wheels and two deluxe carrying handles make travel convenient. The inside is built tough, too, with high-impact egg-crate foam in the cam area, dual tie-down straps to secure the crossbow, a bolt holder that safely houses six bolts and a large padded scope cavity. X-Vault also features three key lock latches for greater security.
It holds today's modern crossbows and is available at an impressive street price of $199 with a three-year warranty.

VANGUARD also expanded its hard case lineup to include Saberlock. Modeled after the popular GDS 6200 Series bow cases, Saberlock boasts all of the same features with a one-inch expanded height and weight to fit today's radical riser designs. Saberlock is a hardcore bow protector with tie-down straps, a thick foam interior, and secure holders for up to 12 arrows. It's tough on the outside, too, made of solid polyethylene with a 600D polyester inlay. Saberlock takes security seriously with a numeric key lock and padlock holders.
Saberlock is available in black (Saberlock 83C) and camouflage finishes (Saberlock 83Z) at street prices of $164 and $169.
