No need to dial the scope, just use a HHA optimizer speed dial. Crossbows are in their infancy as far as research and development go, compound bows seem to be topping out on what they can do. Crossbows will continue to advance so that they are well above any other type of bow in efficiency and accuracy. They have no place in a regular archery season with hand drawn and held bows. Are they a useful tool for hunting? Sure. Do I have any problem with people hunting with one? No, but they should remain in the seasons they are in now or have their own season like we have in Saskatchewan which is a month long season alongside muzzleloaders. I would even consider trying one for hunting but I would have no problem using it in the season it is already legal for.
