Question Cross Bows

I'm thinking about getting a cross bow to hunt small game(rabbits/squirrels)with.It will be ether a Barnett Quad 300(335 fps is $299 it comes with a quiver 6 bolts and a 4x32 scope) package from Cabelas(it's the cheapest place I could find that cross bow kit) or a BarnettRC-150(260 fps $189 for the kit comes with a quiver 4 bolts) form ether Cabelas or MidSouth Shooters Supply. I'm leaning for the RC-150 becouse it's cheaper.Is it good for rabbets and squirrels though?How hard are cross bow sights to get used to and be a good shot with? Any body know of a cheaper place to get ether one of them two bows? Might be good for hunting barney to.

No there is no archery season for small game.Small game season is year round in Kansas. And cross bows are legal year round.
