Setup and Practical Use
Installation is straightforward. Simply align the bi-pod with the lower Picatinny rail of your crossbow and engage the spring-loaded lock. For the best centre of gravity, mount the bi-pod as far forward as the rail allows, ensuring it doesn't interfere with the cocking cycle or your grip. The legs can be folded up against the stock for easy storage in your pack or bow case and deployed with a single movement when you reach your shooting position.
Engineering Insight
The distinct skeletal "web" design of the legs isn't just for show. This high-strength-to-weight ratio geometry is widely used in aerospace engineering to provide structural integrity while shedding every non-essential gram. This ensures your Ravin remains agile and well-balanced, even with the stabiliser attached.
Maintenance and Care
To ensure your TacHeads Bi-Pod remains reliable for years of service:
- Wipe away mud, dust, and moisture with a soft cloth after every outing.
- Apply a tiny drop of silicone-based lubricant to the pivot pins and the QD spring mechanism periodically.
- Ensure the mounting surfaces are clean to prevent any marring of your crossbow's rail.
What to avoid?
Do not use the bi-pod as a handle to carry the full weight of the crossbow, and never use it to pry the bow if it gets wedged in thick cover. While the polymer is exceptionally tough, it is designed for vertical support; excessive lateral torque could strain the locking pins. Also, ensure the legs are fully locked in position before putting weight on the bow.
Recommended Accessories
To complete your professional setup, we recommend the Ravin Padded Crossbow Case, which features dedicated space for a bi-pod-equipped bow. If you often shoot in tall grass where a bipod might be too low, consider adding a Ravin Shooting Stick to your kit for standing shots. Finally, always keep a Ravin Maintenance Kit handy to ensure your string and rail stay as high-performing as your new stabilisation system.
