Just curious, what is the highest scoring broadhead that you have ever tested, fixed, mechanical or otherwise. Thanks.

The highest scoring head ever was the Bone buster broadhead. It was accurate, strong, and has 4 blades. I really don't think it's any better than some of the other heads scoring in the 25 range, but it did have 4 blades with a 1 1/8" cutting diameter. That pushed it over the 25 mark to 26. The only problem I had with the bone buster was that I never could get it sharp! Of course the company makes a sharpner that is supposed to get the heads sharp.

Thanks, I've often wonderd about thoes heads, if they penetrated well with that flat front end. I guess looks can be decieving.

5 shot - did you ever test one of the rippers? - if not would you like one to test? We got a couple of packs of the 115gr rippers and I could send one to you.

I would like to try one of the rippers out. They look like a mean head! If you would like to send one, drop me an email and I will give you my mailing address. Thank you for the offer. Bigbulls, I too wonderd about the tip, but it didn't seem to slow down penetration at all.

Wow, those rippers are $50 for three!<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle> Ouch. To put that in perspective for me, I would have to pay $200.00 for a dozen of them. I can get a dozen Magnus for $40.00. If price is an issue for folks, those heads would be tough.
