The best arrows I have shot with fixed blades were Arrow Dynamics Nitro Stingers, the tapered ones. They have quite a bit of FOC and are pretty stiff. These things flew like darts with fixed blades and required very little tuning.

I have also shot fixed blades with 7 percent FOC though with good results, however it took way more effort to get them there.

I have always felt adequate fletching and FOC were the keys to good arrow flight. Not the best idea for long range shooting from what I understand. Maybe Arthur can explain that one.
