i was a fixed guy ..then someone told me bout the most awesome retractables ever...so i switched...ONLY TO BE DISAPPOINTED when it came down to it. I made the move back to fixed, i will never go back. i have the 1st pack i ever bought...$35 magnus snuffers..6 to a box..i used 3 for practice, and 3 fer huntin...til i figured out how to sharpen them..(lay flat on wet sand paper and rub to sharpen).now i use 5 fer hunting, and 6 fer practice...dont think i have ever put a field tip back on it since.
mechs seem to break everyones' heart...those it hasnt, we'll give it time.
