Ravin.003 R500-Series arrow: the crossbows it fits
The published spec of the Ravin.003 R500-Series arrow, the nock it uses, and the crossbows it fits.
Dry-fire warning
Crossbow bolt data and archery arrow spine, nock and thread data are quoted from each manufacturer's published figures, owner documentation and industry standards, cited on every page. A nock, spine or grain-weight mismatch can cause a dry-fire that damages the bow and can injure the shooter. Confirm against your own owner's manual and the arrow maker's own chart before shooting, and never drop below the stated minimum total weight.

The R500-series arrow is the exception in the Ravin line, a longer arrow tuned for the 500 fps R500 and R500E only.
Ravin is explicit that the standard.003 arrow is not compatible with the R500 Series, and the R500 arrow is for the R500 Series alone.
Mixing R500 and non-R500 Ravin arrows voids the warranty on a 500 fps bow. Read the box before loading.
