Default Shoot through screen + expandables = ?

I shoot with Grim Reapers and just purchased a blind the other day and I am curious if the shoot throughscreen will cause these michanicals heads to open or deflect off target?

I shoot the rage 2 blade....and I wouldn't shoot through the mesh of my DB without expecting it to open. I'd be ticked if it DIDN'T open with that contact.

I'm with GMMAT on this one, I wouldn't do it. If they don't open then I think you have a problem with your heads. It should take much to open them up.

So I guess you made the switch Jeff?

I was planning on removeing the screens but was just curious if someone has done other wise and had success.
