Bows are definitely one of the most popular ranged weapons in the game. Many come in two different varieties - shieldbow and short. If you are a member and have the appropriate Fletching level, you can also create these bows yourself instead of having to buy a bow from another person or from the Grand Exchange.
Brutal arrows and bows are used for killing Zogres.

Introduction
Bolts can be player made, they're also dropped by various monsters around Runescape. If you want them tipped, you must first obtain the additional tips (sold in some stores). Take your gem and use a chisel on it, you will now have a cut one, use your chisel on it again to make bolttips. Use the tips on the appropriate bolts to make the special tipped bolts. Barbed tips can be bought from the ticket merchant in the ranging guild. To make Silver bolts you will need to use a Silver bar on a furnace whilst carrying a Silver bolt mould. Any kind of bolts can also be poisoned using a weapon poisen on it.
Note: when you put a tip on a bolt you may no longer poison it
Plain Bolts
Plain bolts can be made using your Smithing skill. Simply use the appropriate bar on a anvil and smith the bolts. Now use your Fletching skill to attach feathers. You can also make normal bolts (unfeathered bolts) poisoned by adding a weapon poison to them. Another thing you can do is add tips to the bolts, this will make them stronger and you will be able to enchant them (enchanting is all explained in a section above and in the Magic skill guide).
The following table shows you which tips can be added to plain bolts.

Enchanting bolts
Any gem tipped bolt can be enchanted using your Magic skill. Enchanting your gem tipped bolts will result in it having a special effect. These special effects are different for each enchanted gem tipped bolt. To enchant a gem tipped bolt you must be wielding or carrying it, click on the level 4 spell and a interface will pop up, click on the bolt you wish to enchant (you must be carrying or wielding it).
The following image shows the requirements (level and runes) you will need to enchant a gem tipped bolt.

In the following table you will find more info about what effect the enchanting has on the certain gem tipped bolts (this table is sorted from lowest magic level needed to the highest).
| Bolt type | Magic level required | Runes needed | Effect | Magic exp gained |
| Opal | 4 | 1 Cosmic rune and 2 Air runes | A chance of a lightning bolt striking your opponent (this will result in extra damage). | 9 |
| Sapphire | 7 | 1 Cosmic rune, 1 Water rune, and 1 Mind rune | Chance of lowering your opponent's Prayer level (a part of that is given to you). | 17 |

Mith grapples
Some Agility shortcuts you will encounter require you to use a Grapple (ranging). A grapple can be made using your Smithing and Fletching skill. First make a Mithril bolt using the smithing skill (level 53 needed and gives 50 exp), then add a feather with your fletching skill (level 54 needed and gives 5 exp). Now make a Mithril grapple tip (level 59 needed and gives 50 exp) by using your smithing skill again. Attach the Mithril Grapple Tip to the Mithril bolt to make a Mithril grapple. Now use a rope on the Mithril grapple to make it ready for use.
Wield the Mithril Graple and get a Crossbow of mithril or better (can be player made, explained in the Fletching skill guide). Equip both the Mithril grapple and your Crossbow to use the Grapple shortcuts.
The levels required to use the shortcut can be found in the Agility skill guide.
Note: you get to keep the Mithril grapple.
Bakriminel bolts
Bakriminel bolts are powerful ranged ammo requiring level 80 Ranged to use. These bolts have special effects in Player Vs Player situations (only against a player wearing mage armor or no armor):
When targeting an opponent's head, the bolts have a 1 in 3 chance to slow their magic casting for the next 30 seconds. Hitting them again while the effect is still in place has the same chance to reduce their magic accuracy by a percentage proportional to the damage of the hit.
Shots to the torso have a 1 in 4 chance to cause a bleeding effect, dealing 1 life point of damage per second for 60 seconds. Hitting the torso again while this effect is active has the same chance to add an extra point of damage per second for the remainder of the initial duration, up to a maximum of five.
A shot to the legs has a 1 in 3 chance of draining your opponent's run energy in proportion to the damage dealt. If they're low on run energy, a successful hit has the same chance to bind them to the spot for 10 seconds.
Pouches
If you choose to carry a variety of bolts with you, you can purchase a Bolt pouch from Hirko in Keldagrim for 1500 coins. The pouch will allow you to hold up to 4 different kinds of bolts, up to 255 of each. When you click on the pouch, a menu appears. It shows you what you have in the four spaces and has a space for you to equip the bolts you want to use. To add bolts in the pouch, just right-click and choose use on the bolts. Once in the pouch with the menu open, just right-click again to equip the bolts or remove them from the pouch. Pouches are not tradeable and they can only be destroyed. When they are destroyed, the bolts they hold will fall the ground as normal drops.
Knives are a one-handed ranging item, so you can wield a shield while using these. They can be made using your Smithing skills if you have the appropriate metal bars and skill level, except for the Black knives.

The Dwarf multicannon is a powerful Ranged weapon which can be purchased from Nulodion and used after completing Dwarf Cannon. It consists of four parts which are first set up on the ground from the base up to construct the cannon, which can then be loaded with up to 30 Cannonballs to make it rotate and fire automatically at nearby enemies within its line of sight. One full rotation takes 4.8 seconds and consists of eight 45 degree turns, with one cannonball being fired after each turn and therefore hitting up to 8 targets.
You can have a cannon deployed for 20 minutes before you will receive a warning message that it is about to decay. After a further 5 minutes the cannon will decay and disappear, requiring you to claim free replacement parts from Nulodion.
It is also possible to increase the capacity and upgrade the appearance of your multicannon by earning respect in the Artisan's Workshop. At 50% respect you will unlock the Gold cannon which has a capacity of 60 cannonballs, and at 100% you will unlock the Royale cannon which has a capacity of 90 cannonballs.
The four components of a cannon can be bought for 187,500gp each, or you can buy the set for 750,000. However, it may be cheaper to buy the individual pieces or set from the Grand Exchange for less and therefore it is suggested to check the current trade price first.

The armor can be made by members with the appropriate Crafting level. There are also special types of armor that can be found from mini-games and treasure trail rewards.

The attractor/accumulator will collect stray arrows, arrow parts, and other random metallic items. Both will occupy the cape slot and only works while equippped. It does not work if an obstacle is in its way. This helps while ranging because it saves you a little time from having to pick up your stray arrows that have been fired.
Temporary level boosts and Quest rewards
For more information on how to boost your level, see the Temporary Stat Leveling Techniques special report.
For XP rewards from quests, see the Quest Experience Guide special report.

Once you have achieved level 99, you may visit the Armour Salesman, located at the Ranging Guild, to purchase a Ranged cape for 99,000 Coins.

Once you have achieved level 120, the Armour Salesman will sell you the Ranged master cape for 120,000 Coins.
Discount
Note that as of December 2018, another one of Mod Daze's Easter Eggs have been found. This enables you to purchase a Skillcape for half price (only from the Armour Salesman, not Elen) if you are wearing a Ring of Charos (a). Be aware that "Half price" is 92,000 Coins as the experience at level 92 is approximately half way to level 99.
