Are there any (cheaper) alternatives to CCC rigs for Ravens? Was looking at shield resistance rigs but I imagine the sig radius penalty will screw me when tanking torps.

I think u should invest into CCC rigs because they simply rock.Its a lot better to equip hardeners into mid slots imo because they will give u way more res.
Basically i suggest this:
MED:1 X Large Shield Booster + 4* Rat specific hardener + 1*caldary navy shield boost amplifier(worth it imo)So u wont have room for rap rechargers and PDU's will give u just slight cap recharge rate.
So again u really should invest into CCC rigs 
Btw u dont have to worry about inc sig rad if i remember right torp exp radius is 400m OR 450m dont remember exactly but Raven has sig radius 460m so actually doesnt matter at all if u get more sig radius or not.
I assumed we were talking about PVE.
Hope i convinced u.

There is no way arround it. the ccc rig setup are a must for all misssion ships, not just the raven, and the raven doesnt need sheild resist rigs, just 3 rat specific ones.

The Core Defense Capacitor Sa***uard is probably the best alternative to CCC rigs, they sell for less than 5 million each and give -10% to shield booster cap use

I do wonder tho, how long someone should be able to have his Xlarge booster on to do lvl 4s safely. Played around with a raven setup a while and with no chargers in the mids you`ll have a hard time (read impossible) getting over 10 minutes even.
Is there a trick.. or do you need to manually keep your boost in check every second ?
not sure how many pds people normally use in the lows tho.. maybe with a 5 pack it might be better :p i tester with 3 and 2 bcu tho

From what ive heard you can use one of you midds for a cap recharger 2 and fill the lows with pds, along with the ccc rigs and cap skills it should perma run.

You can get them to perma run, i have a few designs around here somewhere ill look them up and find them for you. I know they were T1 rigged, with T2 everything else - its a ***** of a fit though(basicly a Gist XL Booster makes your life easier - hence the price explosion).
On a raven for mission running, i generally wack in torp range rigs - i find doing more damage is better than keeping my booster running, i run constant XL using cap booster 800's, but thats not a solo setup unless you really want to warp out for cap boosters often. I can get about 10-15 minutes of constant shield rep with that (plus 3 hardeners), so i can clear all of the BS, most of the BC's and once my T2 drones are trained, ill barely have to run(not that i really go solo anymore lol).
I cant say im a really big fan of CCC's except on drakes and support ships - i had some on a raven once, but im more for damage over defence now.

Never seen the need for CCC's unless you 1) have lacking skills or 2) wish to fit neuts.
For ratting using torps in conjunction with launcher rigs is probably the optimal way to rat. That way you can hit with torps beyond 35k which is enough.
For PvP I prefer shield rigs, 2x hards (saves mids) and a soldifier is both cheap and effective.

I always do 3 x CCC rigs which keeps you alive nicely.

CCC rigs are my recomendation.
CCC rig roughly 20mil
mission raven income 10mil an hour (low number guessing as a newer runner)
so 6 hours and you have your rigs payed for.
my setup:
6x arbelast cruise
2x heavy dimishing nos (yeah some will advise other things this is what i use)
4x T2 hardners mission appropriate
1x T2 XL booster
1x named boost amp (can't use T2 yet)
3x T2 Power distribution units
2x T2 Ballistic Control units (play around with lows for what works to your skills, may need 1 co-proc)
