  • Ravin Crossbow sight in. This video shows the six steps I use to sight in my Ravin Crossbow. It also shows what happens when you turn the dial the wrong way and provides an important tip of the day. I also discuss the speed scope and what it is actually doing when you turn the speed dial. Please give comments on video. 1/2 MOA= 1 click on Ravin.

    I was also advised to recheck once the broad heads are on. They claim the way the air flows with the blades and the fletching can move the arrow around.
    Nice video! Thanks.
    Generally always a good idea to also take shots exactly how you will in the field. Elevated and with the actual broad heads you will be using.

    Thanks for the video I will definitely reference back to this if need to. Tip to all Ravin owners make sure you check crank handle for debris in socket side if ground hunting especially in low light situation's, debris obstruction could lead to magnet connection failure.

    Eye relief is set when you mount the scope as it pertains to the distance from diopter (eye piece) to your eye. Adjust this to get full sight picture with natural check weld. Then diopter adjustment focuses crosshairs( do this with a blank background ie blue sky)

    Step 1 should be insuring the vertical crosshairs are actually aligned. If they aren’t truly vertical the error will increase based on distance of shot.

    I installed this optic on a crossman 760 air rifle.I have now shot the riffle around 500 times during target/plinking practice, and the ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxc4K63Fd5LglDMObu7-Bgapxp_ef0W8hE scope has done well.With this optic, I have neutralized around 30 pigeons that were invading one of my buildings.For my short range air rifle, I will continue to use this scope, but will be upgrading to a more powerful scope, when I buy a more powerful air rifle, in order to shoot at longer distance.For the money I have spent, this scope has truly been a great buy.

    always do the one shot sight in.....1..set it down on a table or sled and fire at dead center... 2.. if the bolt hits the target keep the scope centered and adjust the reticle to the bolt......next shot will be perfect every time

    Most pro channels would have cut out the arrow thru the barn part, just goes to show its easy to make mistakes. Something that everyone does.

    So if you sight your scope at 50-yards and then move back to 20- yards. And after some sighting, you zero at 20-yards, now do you have to re-sight your 50-yards again? Cuz, said you sight at 50 and move to 20- yards but didn't hit what you want n vice versa. It's easy if you hit your target at 50 and 20 yards without moving the dial any further.

      Yes this should work with a different speed scope. Always verify short distance as well after sighting into confirm.

    Thanks for pointing out a Ravin speed scope I have a Killer Instinct 350 crossbow with a Ravin speed scope I know there are at least 3 different style how do you know which one you have ? I had a Hawke 1x5x32 and love it but the only thing is the windage dial fall off and the Archery dealer that sold it too me he had to replace it and Gave me a Ravin instead So I wanted to know what is the sign in start at really is it 10 yards then twenty yards then 50 too confusing to understand ???

    • @chrisfowleroutdoors7828
      @chrisfowleroutdoors7828  4 роки тому

      Basically you are trying to make sure that the gap between your 20 and 50 yard dot match the the distance your arrow drops from 20 to 50 yards. It can be confusing, hope this helps.

    • @sarb6p55
      @sarb6p55 4 роки тому

      I tried shooting at 30 yards I still don't understand but earlier I turned up the dial uo to 355 and came real close to the bullseye As for me I need show on hands strange but true

  • @pokey5428
    @pokey5428 3 роки тому +1

    So at 50 yards, will it always be 4 clicks per inch, turning the dial in the direction you want to move the point of impact? I'm not sure I fully understood your discussion about having to think about things at 100 yards (i.e. doubling the offset, then applying 2 clicks per inch equaling 24), and applying that number to the 50 yard correction.

    • @chrisfowleroutdoors7828
      @chrisfowleroutdoors7828  3 роки тому +1

      Sorry for the confusion,
      I was trying to make the point that 1/4 MOA is 4 clicks per inch at 100 yards. Thanks for the comment.

      @@chrisfowleroutdoors7828 Okay, that makes sense. Thank you for clarifying. Ravin provides no information on their scope, except for a terrible video on sighting it in. Knowing 1/4 MOA at 100yrds would have been helpful.

    The Ravin video says to go back to 30 yards after the 50 yard sight in is complete. Did you do 20 yards for any particular reason?

    You could have saved yourself a whole lot of time and effort when sighting in.
    At 10 yards, just to see where it's hitting..... you hit the target.
    Going from that put the crossbow back in a solid rest and aim at the bull and without moving the bow adjust the reticle to hit the arrow you just fired. The same process would go for the 50 yard sight in.
    Hold dead on with the 50 yard reticle..... if it hits where you aim you're good if it doesn't put the crossbow in a solid rest aim for the bull's eye and adjust the reticle to go to the arrow you just fired.
    You left out an important part toward the end of the video though. You forgot to mention that verifying the 20 yard reticle if you hit high or low you have to adjust the speed ring up or down to compensate for the arrow trajectory.
