Ravin R470 Black Compound Crossbow – 470 FPS Elite Performance in Stealth Finish
Precision Engineering in a Compact Build
At the heart of this crossbow is the revolutionary HexCoil Cam System, which rotates the cams a full 300 degrees. This results in an ultra-slim design that offers unmatched manoeuvrability in tight spaces or thick cover. The Ravin R470 utilises the Trac-Trigger Firing System, which slides forward to the exact centre of the string, eliminating deviations and ensuring match-grade accuracy with every single shot.
This model comes as a fully-assembled premium package. It includes a high-end illuminated scope calibrated up to 91 metres (100 yards), providing a clear aiming point even in low-light conditions. The build features a CNC-machined aluminium riser and a durable polymer stock, ensuring structural integrity under the massive forces generated. The silent cocking system requires minimal effort, allowing you to focus entirely on your target.

Setup and Proper Use
Before your first shot, ensure that the string and cables are well-lubricated. Use the integrated removable draw handle to cock the bow. The Versa-Draw system allows for a smooth, silent draw—simply turn the handle until the trigger mechanism clicks into place. Always load your arrow with the odd-coloured vane pointing down into the rail and ensure the nock is fully clicked onto the string. The automatic safety and Anti-Dry Fire system protect against accidental firing.
Fun Fact and Maintenance
Did you know that the 300-degree rotation of the HexCoil cams is what allows such high speeds from such a short power stroke? To keep your Ravin R470 performing at its peak, wax the string regularly and apply rail lube to the flight track. After use in damp conditions, wipe the bow dry and apply a light coat of oil to metal parts. Never dry-fire the crossbow! Shooting without an arrow will cause immediate destruction of the limbs and cams and may lead to injury.
Recommended Accessories
To maximise the potential of your Ravin R470, we recommend using only genuine Ravin arrows with high-precision tolerances. Complement your setup with a padded hard case for secure transport and a high-performance target butt capable of stopping arrows with over 260 Joules of energy. For practice, ensure you use field tips that match the weight of your hunting broadheads exactly.
