Page 11 - Wicked Ridge RDX 400 Reviews

I like most everything about the RDX400. Accuracy and speed were the two primary reasons for purchasing and it didn't disappoint. Although I don't hunt at 60 yards, it's nice to know I can accurately shoot that far.

My dislikes with the RDX400 are related to the ACUdraw. The string does not rewind after cocking the bow. There's quite a bit of slack to rewind by hand after cocking and releasing tension to clear the scope before attempting to rewind/retract the string.

Secondly, I do now like how the string claw sits in the stock. It is too loose and does not sit in the stock the way the manual describes.

I will be making a trip to the shop that sold me the bow to have them check it out. Hopefully they'll have some suggestions or a fix.

Tried other ten point model this best for the money still not cheap

Quality bow little on expensive side but seems well made

Nice bow, accurate and fast. Only issues are that I wish it would decock and while sitting in a treestand I’ve pushed the crank handle out of the stock. The handle makes a big clunk when it falls out on your metal stand.

It’s is out of the box, super accurate with exceptional speed.

Did not feel comfortable with my former crossbow at 40 yards. The RDX400 nails it at 40-45 yards. Super quiet. Took a little getting use to the cranking system. Watching the Acu Draw video was helpful.

Wasn't sure what to expect for my first crossbow but this thing is awesome. Gives me a little more range over my compound bow and is more convenient to use.

Love my new RDX-400! Compact, accurate and powerful.

Got my first deer already, nice balance lite weight sharp accuracy. Wish there wasn’t any paint on the rail, the oil makes lumps on rail.

Altogether a great crossbow: balance, size and speed are perfect. It is not the loudest bow, because of its efficiency. I love it for that. However, the scope is low of quality, and there should be an option to buy it without a scope for less money. The rail lube provided dissolves the paint on the rail into a sticky gunk. That seems weird. A better option could have been not to paint the rail. Other than that it’s great.

Great crossbow for under $1000. Love the rear draw, feels more like a rifle. Only wish they had offered a package with illuminated scope, for early morning and evening hunts.

That’s irritating.

The only problem I have seen is the camo just rubbing off from repeat fire, which is merely cosmetic so what does it matter truly? Accuracy is persistent with minute margins of error (probably just from light wind, lack of bipod/fixed position, and perhaps zeroing). It is relatively quiet. The only true sound that might hint impending doom is the flight of the arrow with its own wooshing across the air. These are all factors outside the crossbow itself. The mechanism itself is functional, mass is centered which helps reduce sway upon shooting, and has a solid weight to it (depending on attachments). I absolutely love this thing!

Would be a five star rating. But the safety is in a bad position. You have to move your right hand off the grip to turn it from safe to fire. Wish it was easier to get to.

Cocking device best part of this crossbow. Lacks speed and accuracy.

Well this is my very first crossbow. I'm very impressed with the accuracy, speed and comfort.
Set up and use is very easy.
Quality and workmanship is proven and I'm very happy. I adjusted the scope four times and on the 5th shot I got a bullseye .

Wanted to get back into bow hunting with my bad shoulder. Found this crossbow and man is it nice. It is very lightweight and with the ACU draw pro system, cocking it is effortless and it is very accurate. I love it!!!!

I like the balance and feel. Accuracy is outstanding!

This is the third crossbow I owned. It is my second reverse draw The balance and accuracy is great The scope that is supplied is clear and good Eye relief I really like the flip up scope covers The trigger pull is good and light. The trigger dose have a little extra travel but breaks crisp. I thought assembly was easy ( this is like the 4 now I have assembled). The bow shoots very accurate with the supplied bolts.
