Well, after shooting a buck with a Rage today I can tell you that I will be going back to the good ol' Rocky Mt Snypers for next year. The Rage didn't perform bad, clean pass through, no damage, dead deer, but I have actually got bigger wounds from my Snypers (not exactly sure how that is possible), and the blood trails with the Snyper was better than with the Rage. I hit about 8 inches behind the shoulder on the entrance and it exited right behind the opposite front shoulder. The blood trail was almost non-exsistant for the first 65 yards or so, it literally took me 20 minutes to find the first drop on a clean pass through [:-]. I havn't shot enough animals with either to give a good comparison, but I do know that the Snypers perform as well or better and they cost a good bit less
