This experiment investigates the vertical flight time of a crossbow bolt. Fired straight up from a Ravin R10 crossbow at 400 fps, a 400-grain arrow with a 150-grain whistle tip took approximately 19 seconds to return to the ground. The experiment highlights the importance of safety when conducting such tests, with participants taking cover during the descent.
This video tests the Ravin R10 crossbow's penetration capabilities against a Cadillac Escalade windshield. The first shot with a Muzzy broadhead caused the blades to break but still penetrated the glass. A second shot with a sharper tip successfully pierced the windshield and penetrated 7-8 inches into phone books, demonstrating the crossbow's power.
