Hey 5 shot...Crimson Raptors?????
Have you had an opportunity to get some of these and try them out? If not, do you plan to? I saw apackage of them at Bass Pro last night and they are a pretty good looking head. Since they have a .040 main blade and .030 mechanical blade, I would think they would be fairly durable. I remember that the Talons did not fare well in your tests.
Thanks for all of your efforts.
