The Ravin R26X is the shortest and lightest crossbow in Ravin's bullpup lineup, made for saddle hunters, ground-blind hunters and shooters with smaller frames. It weighs 6.5 lbs, measures 26 inches long and is just 5.75 inches wide at the axles when cocked, small enough to swing inside a tight blind or around a tree. It still delivers 400 fps and 142 ft-lbs of kinetic energy. The integrated silent crank cocks it with about 12 lbs of effort and lets the string down just as quietly.
This is the black R26X, Ravin part number R027, with the 100-yard illuminated 450 scope. The XK7 camo version (R028) comes with a Speed Lock scope. Ravin lists the bow at 26 inches long, so ignore any listing that says 36 inches.
Key features
- Smallest Ravin bullpup: 26 inches long, 6.5 lbs and 5.75 inches wide when cocked.
- HeliCoil Technology: each cam rotates up to 340 degrees while staying balanced, so this short frame still reaches 400 fps.
- Silent cocking and de-cocking: the built-in Versa-Draw crank takes about 12 lbs of effort and runs on a one-way bearing, so cocking makes no noise.
- Trac-Trigger Firing System: centers the string on every draw for straight nock travel, with automatic safety, anti-dry-fire and a pull of about 4 lbs.
- Frictionless Flight System: the arrow and string float above the rail, which keeps shots consistent and extends string life.
- Ready to hunt: comes with an illuminated scope with 20-100 yard reticles, three .003 arrows, a quiver and a removable draw handle.
