| You should go watch the programme series called Weapons that made Britain hosted by Mike Loades.
In one episode he compares the Longbow to the Crossbow and later talks about the coming of the muskets. He demonstrates rates of power, tests armour penetration of both etc.
He even takes some noobs and trains them.
An excellent series of programmes
