There is a little trick to getting them in the ferrule right. They slip in from the front one at a time - the blades have a little tab that engages the rear. There should be a diagram on the package . . . .

What's fun is putting on a getting off the bleeder blades on the Muzzy Phantom 220 grain heads... But I still wouldn't use anything else.

What works good for me is to get one of the blades started in the slot (about half way down the ferrell/shaft) and then get the other one started about half way and then finially the third. Once you have all three blades in about half way gently push them down the rest of the way... Make sure they are all pushed all the way down and they screw on the tip...

Throw them away. I was using these same heads this year when I shot at a buck and missed this year, piece of garbage blades bend and ips brak off just hitting the ground, what the hell is a broadhead if itshatters on impacting a bone?? By far the phantom is the worse broad head I have ever shot in my life. Im stiucking with my Muzzy MX 4 and Wasp Hammer SST's.

The new MX-3 goes together pretty easy and I have had them shoot just fine. I have hit plywood with them and the blades didn't bend. Can't wait to drive one through a deer.

yeah they are very accurate now that i have them put together, and as tough as tough can be. but i dont want to shoot them that much and already re sharpend them because i shot them to much.

Hey we have been killing a pile of deer with Muzzys and we love them, but all muzzys are not created equal. I had a problem with blades that wouldn't seat also. I called the company, and they sent out a new ferrel. I returned the original as requested. I also find the 4 blade 100s fly the most consistantly for me. We have pictures posted at whitetailkillers.com
