Default RE: Magnus Stinger destroyed by a rib

There are so many variables when an arrow goes in a liveanimal that it is impossible to cover them all. My feeling is that if you hit a rib on the way inthe Magnuscuts through it like butter. There would be nothing to slow its progress down before it hit.

I have had a two blade fail to get a pass through on deer when it never hit any bone shooting a set up producing around 70 lbs of KE.. Then again I have had a number of pass throughs on big deer with a 2 inch cut three blade mechanical shot out of the same setup.

Wasn't it Rob that shot an elk and got a complete passthrough then with the same setup, same arrow and style head didn't get a passthrough on a doe? Again there are so many variables shooting one animal from the other it is not like comparing apples to apples....

I am not touting Magnus as the "best" head out there but it is certainly a quality head. I would not be afraid to use them on any game.
