Better me to ask here instead of the generic archery forum, expecting some folks had experience swapping or upgrading winches on crossbows.
Building one hootershooter for tuning my competition arrows, got to a moment need to chose a winch.
On my draw board I have a worm gear winch, lot to winding and unwinding but not bad how many times a year to do some elbow greasing.
Different story now choosing one for the shooting machine, lot of arrows to work with a lot to pull and let down.
Looking for smallest possible still some reliable guizmos, came up with some pictures on the web for crossbow cocking, never had one in my hands assuming only these pull the rope as well. Only thing I can't see from pictures is there a safe stopping on some given length and what about letting down some sort of ratchet system incorporated?

pls advise
