Who it's for, and who it's not for

Wicked Ridge RDX 400 vs RDX 410: what changed

The Wicked Ridge RDX 400 built a following as a reverse-draw style value bow with TenPoint derived technology. The RDX 410 is its successor. The manufacturer's description of the change is simple: the RDX 410 is shorter and faster than the RDX 400.

Shorter length helps in ground blinds and tight tree stands where swinging a long bow is awkward. The small speed increase flattens trajectory slightly. We are not listing other RDX 400 specs here because they are not in our verified data set, and we do not publish specs we cannot confirm.

If you find a leftover RDX 400 at a meaningful discount, it may still be a reasonable buy. If the prices are close, the RDX 410 is the one to get. See our full RDX 400 vs RDX 410 comparison.

RDX 410 specs

Every spec below comes from our verified product data. If a spec is not listed here, we do not have a confirmed figure for it, so we leave it out rather than guess.

What's in the box

Our product data confirms the following items are included with the Wicked Ridge RDX 410:

• Pro-View 400 scope
• 3 Match 400 arrows

Speed and kinetic energy

Wicked Ridge rates the RDX 410 at 410 FPS. Manufacturers typically measure rated speed with a specific arrow weight, and real world speed with your arrows can differ. To keep comparisons fair, we calculate energy for every bow with the same 400 grain arrow using the standard formulas: kinetic energy (ft-lbs) = grain × FPS² ÷ 450,240 and momentum (slug-ft/s) = grain × FPS ÷ 225,218.

At 410 FPS, a 400 grain arrow carries about 149.3 ft-lbs of kinetic energy and 0.73 slug-ft/s of momentum at the muzzle. That places it in the very large game class of widely cited energy guidelines (elk, moose, cape buffalo class animals). For whitetail, a common guideline is at least 42 ft-lbs, so every bow in our lineup clears that bar with a large margin. Shot placement and a sharp broadhead matter far more than extra speed.

Values are calculated at the muzzle from rated speed. Arrows lose speed and energy downrange. Try your own arrow weight in our crossbow speed and energy calculator, and read how far a 400 FPS crossbow can shoot for practical range limits.

Cocking: ACUdraw Silent

ACUdraw Silent is a built-in crank cocking system housed in the stock. The Silent version is designed to reduce the ratcheting clicks of older crank systems, which matters when you need to re-cock in a stand before daylight. It cocks the bow but it is not a de-cocking system, so you still need a plan to unload at the end of the hunt, usually a discharge bag or a safe target.

For many hunters, especially those with shoulder or back issues, a crank cocker is the difference between a crossbow they can use comfortably and one they avoid. It also helps consistency, because the string is pulled back evenly every time, which is good for accuracy.

New to this? Our step by step guide on how to cock a crossbow covers every method, and how long you can leave a crossbow cocked explains safe storage.

Scope and optics

The bow ships with the Pro-View 400 scope. A factory matched scope means you can mount, sight in and hunt without shopping for optics separately, and it is calibrated with the bow's speed class in mind.

If you later want more magnification, an illuminated reticle or longer range marks, see our crossbow scope guide for upgrades such as the TenPoint Pro-View 2, RangeMaster 100, EVO-X Marksman Elite 3.0 and Hawke XB30 Pro.

Whatever scope you use, a careful zero makes the biggest difference. Follow our crossbow sight-in guide before hunting season.

What owners say

We summarize recurring themes from public Amazon ratings and owner discussions on hunting forums and Reddit. These are patterns, not quotes, and small rating counts mean individual experiences carry a lot of weight.

The RDX 410 averages 3.8 stars from 24 Amazon ratings as of September 2026. A moderate sample with a middle of the pack average.

• The ACUdraw Silent crank is a frequent positive
• Shoppers coming from the RDX 400 appreciate the shorter, faster update
• Comparisons with the Fury 410 often hinge on de-cocking
• A share of mixed ratings holds the average below the Fury 410

We treat owner feedback as one input alongside specs and price. It helps flag patterns, but it cannot replace your own judgment about fit, budget and hunting style.

Price and value

At about $899.99, the RDX 410 costs about $100 more than the TenPoint Titan 400, which shares ACUdraw Silent and the Pro-View 400 scope but is 10 FPS slower. The Fury 410 costs about $200 more and adds de-cocking plus the RangeMaster Pro scope.

If de-cocking matters, we would stretch to the Fury. If not, the RDX 410 is a well equipped, quiet cocking kit.
