Match the scope to your bow's speed
Crossbow reticles are calibrated for a speed range. If your bow is faster or slower than the scope expects, the aiming marks will not line up with the listed distances. Here is how the scopes we track line up with our crossbows:
- Hawke XB30 Pro (215 to 450 FPS): covers every bow we track up to the Stealth 450. Not rated for the Flatline 460 or Nitro 505.
- RangeMaster 100 (380 to 505 FPS): covers every crossbow we track, from the Commander M1 at 380 to the Nitro 505.
- EVO-X Marksman Elite 3.0 (300 to 550 FPS): covers every crossbow we track with room to spare.
Factory scopes on our crossbows
Many bows ship with a scope: Pro-View 400 (Titan 400, RDX 410), lighted 3X Pro-View (Rampage XS), coated 4X multi-line scope (Commander M1), RangeMaster Pro variable speed (Fury 410), 100-yard EVO-X Marksman Elite (Stealth 450), EVO-X Elite (Nitro 505) and Burris Oracle X rangefinding scopes on the Oracle packages. For those, an upgrade is optional. For the Venom X and Flatline 460, where our data does not list a scope, choose one from this page.
Once mounted, follow our sight-in guide.
