The right bolt for the Wicked Ridge RDX 400
The correct bolt length, nock and minimum grain weight for the Wicked Ridge RDX 400, and what stops a dry-fire.
Dry-fire warning
Bolt length, nock type and minimum grain weight are quoted from each manufacturer's published arrow data and owner documentation, cited on every page. A nock 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 before shooting, and never drop below the stated minimum total grain weight.

The RDX 400 is a reverse-draw Wicked Ridge at up to 410 fps on a 185-pound draw. It uses the 20-inch Match 400 carbon arrow with an Alpha-Nock HP, the same arrow family as the rest of the current Wicked Ridge line.
The reverse-draw layout does not change the arrow. It is a 20-inch Alpha-Nock Match 400 arrow; the wrong nock on this fast bow is a dry-fire risk and voids the warranty.
