Default Rocky Mountain Snypers

Ordered a set a few days ago. What's everyone's opinion on these broadheads? I've heard nothing but good so far so I figured I'd give them a shot.

they are really good. Both my dad and I have both used them. Between my dad and me We have killed 9 deer with them. I dont remember trailing a deer over 50 yards. I might try the rage this year. Its basically the same thing with a larger cutting diameter

I killed my '05 elk with the snyper. Have never heard anyone who actually used themhave any complaints. Go for it.

Didn't care for the way they went together, very flimsy!! PLus that dang little rubber band kept coming off at the worst time, like when I was up in my treestand!! Try to slip that small rubber band back on over that Razor tip!! Let us know what you think of them after you try hunting a season with them.

Got them a few days ago, and well ...not impressed. They didn't seem very solidly built and my old muzzy were just as accurate. I will not be using these this fall but if anyone would like to try them out, pay the shipping and I'll send you one to shoot.

If they werent any more accurate than your muzzys, why switch in the first place? The must shoot like a field tip too then.

They scored well in 5-shots tests (www.broadheadtest.com). The only negative I've heard is that the tip can break on bone.

Goos, I ordered them to see how well they shot. I've only shot my muzzy fixed blades and wanted to see what the mechanical deal was about. I didn't make any "switch" simply just testing equipment out.
