[/align]The company that owns the company that makes the Block bought Rocky Mountain Broadheads. They felt the Snyper line wasn't marketed well and decided to start a new company. Rage broadheads were born. They could have just marketed the Snypers better. For whatever reason;they started rage. Since they owned the company they could do what they wanted. They used the Snyper design and made some small [ but important] changes.The things I wish they would have kept are the rubber band in front of the blades and the "Devistator Tip" . I definatly like the tip better on the Snyper XP-3. I have no problem with the increased cutting diameter. It seems like a good idea. Maybe the heads I checked out were just bad heads. 5-Shot got better results from his set.
