Alright guys, I am and have been a fan of expandable's for a long time. The pure accuracy and consistancy of them compared to field tips is the reason. I have used Scorpion XP's for quite sometime now, and LOVE them!Good holes, super accurate! But I think they are not making them anymore
1. Does anyone know if they are still making them for sure? Where can you find them reasonably $$ ? (Cabelas and the 3 local bow shops dont have them here.)
2. What would you recommend that is as close to the Scoprion style as possible?
PS Lets keep Rage out of this, bought a pack last year, two opened prematurely. Never again.
Thanks for your help guys.

I have never had any dealings with the scorpion andI don't know what style they are. I have been shooting the same Bh(Vortex Pro Extreme 100gr) for 10+ years now. They have performed for me flawlessly for neara decade with my set-up's, I don't shoot light, fast hunting arrows...cabelas has them....

Prior to shooting the Rage 2 blades I was shooting Spitfires. There is no reason that I switched other than I like to try new broadheads. If you like the Scorpions give the Spitfires a try. They leave great blood trails, the problem is they are usually very short.
Yes those are the ones, they appear on cabelas website, but they dont have them I looked, called etc. No dice. I was using a alpine quiver, I hollowed the holes out plenty in order to not touch the blades. One I shot at a bobcat during late season in Tioga County PA and it prematurely opened as it was a 40yard shot and I could see the arrow pull sharply down and to the right about half way to the target. I know it opened bc I had one do it shooting at a glen target buck and it did the same exact motion. I had problems while sitting in the tree if I would tap the arrow to hard they would shake out. Maybe I had a bad bunch I dont know. But I do know I have ever been able to bring myself to buy another pack. Not trying to put them down or tell people not to use them, they just arent for me. [&:]

I was just in Bowhunters Superstore up the road from me and they have 2 dozen packs of NAP Scorpion XP's hanging on their showroom floor. $29.99 a pack.
