Default NAP quick spin vanes

Has any one tried the new quick spins?
I was thinking of putting some on some axis 340's but I don't want to waste my money if there not worth the price.

I've been shooting them for a few weeks now and am pretty impressed with them. My groups definitely shrinked some. I was shooting 4" feathers before. They are as loud as feathers, but I would not say any louder. They will likely lower your FOC a little, weighing in at 12 grains each. They seem to be pretty durable as well.

I have been shooting them on my Gold Tips for about a month or so, in my opinion the groups are definently tighter. I am a little disapointed with the way they hold up though, after blowing through the target a couple times the vanes show serious wear. I have to keep an eye on them to see if they get worse. They do seem to work.

I've been experimenting with 'em for a few weeks as well and I also really like the Quik Spins. They certainly put a heck of a spin on 'em. I'm able to shoot about any b-head I want from my rig without worry. I have been winging all kinds of different b-heads into the Block and the HD Deer and I really like 'em. I'm gonna give them a serious amount of shooting before hunting season gets here. I would really like to see a 3" size come along soon though. They stabilize so well I just don't see the need for the 4" length/weight?

I really like mine also. They are worth the money. NAP is asking for suggestions for future production sizes and colors. Some 3d'ers are asking for shorter vanes. Here is the link:

I agree with IL Cornfield. I love the quickspins but would like to see them in a shorter lighter version.

I'm pretty sure that 5 shot did a review of these vanes on his site.
