I had the same problem last year when i tryed the rage 3 blades. The o-ringsall broke before i even shot at a deer. I belive stuffing them into my old quiver forced the back side of the blades to cut the o-rings. So i went back to the reapers. (never ever had a problem in 5 years with those).. BUT i did buy a new quiver this year so i think im going to try the rages again sometime this year just to see what happens.
