I don't think this is right, I imported my party from 7 so everyone had a critical skill of 20 and with just 20 points in crit, my bard was getting quite a few instant kills with the double shot cross bow, more than my ranger in fact. Part of it I beleive was her high eagle eye skill which happened to be quite a bit higher than my ranger who took longer to max out senses, since she started out lower and was always 1-2 lvls behind. The other part was that my bard (a hobbit)was faster with a higher dex so she fired more arrows, so she had more chances to get instant kills.

My suggestion for a lot of crit kills with your ranger is use a Hobbit and max out senses and dex fast, then spd. Hobbits have a lot of sen, dex, and speed so they'll shoot quite often and have an improved chance to crit. The downside is that you'll go through a lot of ammo, so it's hard to keep her stocked.
