Ravin Technology
HELICOIL® TECHNOLOGY
The engine behind Ravin crossbows. This revolutionary technology has several industry-changing advantages that all work together to create the most accurate crossbow ever designed. HeliCoil technology coils cable away from both the top and bottom of the cams in helical grooves keeping the cams perfectly balanced. This allows the cams to rotate an incredible 340 degrees, while both cams remain perfectly level when drawing and shooting the crossbow. This revolutionary design creates an incredibly compact crossbow packed full of innovative features that produce rifle-like downrange accuracy. HeliCoil technology is featured in the R5X, R10X, R10, R26X, R29X, and R29X Sniper crossbows.
TRAC-TRIGGER™ FIRING SYSTEM
A patented built-in trigger mechanism that slides forward on the rail and clasps directly to the precise center of the string every time the bow is drawn, allowing for straight-line nock travel. This unique Helicoil advantage creates a perfectly balanced draw for unmatched down-range accuracy with every shot. Trac-Trigger Firing System is featured in the R5X, R10X, R10, R26X, 29X, 29X Sniper, R500, R500E, R500 Sniper, R500E Sniper, and R18 crossbows.
VERSA-DRAW™ COCKING SYSTEM
One of the revolutionary design advantages provided by HeliCoil technology is the Versa-Draw Cocking System. Working in conjunction with the Trac-Trigger Firing System this ultra-compact fully integrated cocking mechanism is built into the sleek stock design. Featuring a minimal draw force, the Versa-Draw Cocking System is ambidextrous and can cock and un-cock your Ravin crossbow. This unique Helicoil advantage provides an easy-to-use, fully integrated cocking mechanism delivering unmatched accuracy with every shot. Versa-Draw Cocking System is featured in the R5X, R10X, R10, R26X, R29X, R29X Sniper, and R18 crossbows.
FRICTIONLESS™ FLIGHT SYSTEM
This patented technology allows the arrow and string to free float above the rail, eliminating friction for consistent accuracy and increased string and cable life. This unique HeliCoil advantage delivers astounding target accuracy with every shot. Frictionless Flight System is featured in the R5X, R10X, R10, R26X, R29X, R29X Sniper, R500, R500E, R500 Sniper, R500E Sniper, and R18 crossbows.
VERTICOIL CAM SYSTEM
The new proprietary VertiCoil Cam System rotates the ultra-small cams 720 degrees coiling the string and cables around the cam and cam axle allowing an axle-to-axle height of 1.3 inches when fully cocked! VertiCoil uses HeliCoil in two places: the cam and cam axle. VertiCoil Cam System is featured in the R18 crossbow.
VERSADRIVE™ COCKING SYSTEM
The new VersaDrive Cocking System consists of a revolutionary dual screw drive that moves the Trac-Trigger™ Firing System (TTFS) back and forth. The internal clutch within the VersaDrive System eliminates over-cocking and allows cocking or decocking to be stopped at any time during the process. VersaDrive Cocking System is featured in the R500, R500E, R500 Sniper, and R500E Sniper crossbows.
ELECTRIC DRIVE SYSTEM
The new Ravin Electric Drive System changes the game. With the push of a button, the user can cock or decock their bow.

Electric Drive System is featured in the R500E and R500E Sniper crossbows.
HEXCOIL™ CAM SYSTEM
The new proprietary HexCoil Cam System drives blistering speeds with acute accuracy – by rotating an incredible 360 degrees. Along with this combination of increased accuracy and speed, the new game-changing HexCoil Cam System allows the axle-to-axle width to be narrower than ever, at just 3.6 inches when fully cocked. HexCoil Cam System is featured in the R500E, R500, R500 Sniper, and R500E Sniper crossbows.
SILENT COCKING
The Fully Integrated Silent Cocking System works in conjunction with the Trac Trigger Firing System and includes a built-in one-way bearing removing any noise, resulting in a completely silent draw. The cocking mechanism allows you to stop the draw cycle at any time during the cocking process. They'll never hear you coming. Silent Cocking is featured in the R26X, R29X, R29X Sniper, R5X, R10X, R500, R500E, R500 Sniper, and R500E Sniper crossbows.
