Mounting a scope to your crossbow can greatly improve your accuracy and your ability to acquire targets quickly. Crossbows almost exclusively use dovetail rail mounts as a base for installing crossbow scopes, most modern crossbows are produced with these rail mounts preinstalled. For crossbows that do not have rail mounts attached, they can be easily attached to the rear sight. Most crossbows scopes, such as red dot scopes, are equipped with scope rings compatible with rail mounts.
