I'm sure you could get the axis in .001 they just don't offer it, the Bemans just are separated that way and the one's that don't cut the mustard are sold differently. Still for the price I think they should be top of the line and that's .001 and better. Kind of makes you wonder if there's much of a difference and subsequently worth spending the extra cash. I do like the finish on the ICS Hunters I have. The 340's were recommended but I think they are a bit stiffer than slightly stiff. Something to keep in mind if you choose the Beman's. The ICS Hunter elites are supposed to be .001 also. I'm waiting for some of those.
About as scientific as I can get.

I can say this though. The nocks on the Hunters come installed, they are so tight I thought they were glued in. You can't turn them with your hand. Fortunately I had a nock tool from Gold Tip.
