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.
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
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.
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)
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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 ???
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.
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
I wanted to verify my closest and furthest dot was correct. Sometimes things happen when sighting inn , I always like to verify to give me confidence in the stand. Thanks
@@troy7124 I did the same thing with my CP Amped 415 and love the scope. I just purchased the Raven R10 which had the same scope so I was familiar with it.
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.

Thank you for this instructional advice and the footage. 👏😁. You made it easy for a person like me who is new to sighting in his crossbow.

I’ve totally done that. Luckily for me not with a barn behind it. Thanks for sharing that!
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.
Tell that to my nagging girlfriend 😩
Very informative. Thanks
Goes to show you. Everyone makes mistakes I did the same thing turning scope the wrong way I love my ravin r10
What kind of rest are you using?

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.

Basically your moving the bullet or bolt hole. Easiest way to remember
Will this method work for other speed scopes?
Eric Angle
Yes this should work with a different speed scope. Always verify short distance as well after sighting into confirm.
Thanks for commenting
My scope maxed out and I can't hit my target at 100 YARDS... HOW DO I GET IT TO HIT AT 100. I JAVE THE RAVIN R29X
What type of scope is on your R29x?

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?
I wanted to verify my closest and furthest dot was correct. Sometimes things happen when sighting inn , I always like to verify to give me confidence in the stand.
Thanks
I like too know where too get the vice at.
I got vice off Amazon. Thanks
What's the brand or the name of vice you got?
Idk the price of that scope but the MA3TY seems very similar and is Bout 130$
You can get 1 from wyvern for $89,brand new factory take offs,I put one on my centerpoint 415,made a world of difference
@@troy7124 Damn. Thanks amazon

In this recording it almost sounds like a gunshot.
Douglas Borgaro It does sound like it. The microphone was very close to the bow when it went off. Thanks for comment.
Doug, the Ravin R20 is very loud--thankfully, it's also very fast.
Ihb
It's a bolt not an arrow
It's an ARROW.
Bolts are the 6"-10" projectiles used in indoor competition.
That ravon don't stack the bolts like the ten point does
