Middle Ages Crossbows; Really Need Someone to Answer This
Most reliable people that I have talked to stated that the 250 lbs crossbow would be for the Early Medieval Ages; that the 300 lbs to 600+lbs would be for the High Middle Ages; and that the 1000+ lbs would be for the Late Medieval Ages.

Are there any academic sources that would back this up?

thank you
Take a looks at springalds and the great crossbows by Jean Lebiel. It is released by the Royal Armouries.

Are you referring only to war bows?

It's not on the internet :( :cry:
And I don't have the time to go to the library. Darn it, I should have a private library at home :mad:
If you are limited to things online I do not think you will find any real useful information that would be academic.... The books is only 15 dollars or so though.
