Ravin R29X Crossbows

The R29X line is where Ravin’s reputation for accuracy got its most public confirmation: both the standard R29X and the R29X XK7 carry Best of 2024 awards, and the base model holds a perfect rating from verified buyers on the official store. Three configurations fill the family, all built on the same 450 fps, 180 foot-pound platform.

The standard R29X in stealth black, at $2,349.99, is the purest version. It is a tactical, bullpup-style crossbow, fast and compact with the fully integrated silent cocking system, which suits close-quarters hunting where speed of handling matters as much as the arrow’s. The finish is deliberately understated, a sleek, tactical look that blends into stands, blinds and grey weather alike.

The R29X XK7, at $2,549.99, keeps every specification of the black model and adds the two upgrades that define Ravin’s camo trims: Kings’ XK7 camouflage, seven abstract shapes and textures built for North American terrain, and the 100-yard illuminated scope with Speed Lock, the locking ring that keeps your fps adjustment fixed once dialed. For hunters who felt the standard illuminated scope was the one soft spot in the package, the XK7 answers it directly.

The third member is the R29X XK7 RDS, also $2,549.99, and it is the configuration for a different kind of shooter entirely. It replaces magnified glass with a single red dot riding the Jack Plate adjustable elevation mount, with a calibrated sight tape matched to 450 fps. Originally built for jurisdictions that restrict magnified optics, it has since become the choice of hunters who simply prefer both eyes open, instant target acquisition and a dial-to-distance workflow with no reticle math.

All three draw at 12 pounds and carry the HeliCoil technology stack that defines the platform. The official R29X page carries the current pricing, award details and stock for each configuration.
