RE: Rage Broadheads?
[/align]go with rocky mountain snypers. they are pretty much the same design but with some very important differences. smaller cutting diameter and they use rubber bands instead of the rubber O ring at the back of the head. the rage heads use more energy to open and have a larger cutting diameter . = less likely to pass through. P.S. I shoot rocky mtn. snyper three blades . I was having a hard time getting replacement blades . I bought rage three blades thinking they were the same head . I registered gor this site when I did a search on rage heads and read the questions posted here. Just trying to keep people from making the same mistake I made.

I have full reviews of them on the subscribers side of my website. In a nut shell they are pretty good heads, not the best, not the worst. A lot depends on your setup on how well they will work for you.

I absolutely love mine. They fly exactly like my field points and even though I am shooting a relatively slow bow (232fps I have a really short dl) The arrow passed almost all the way through the deer. I am very impressed with them and will most likely be using them for a long time.

RE: Rage Broadheads?
I am not nearly as scientific as 5 Shot. My only test was performed in my garage . I stabbed the broad head into a cardboard box with {what I thought was} enough force to make the head open. Three times I tried. Three times I faled. Same cardboard, this time I used a Snyper XP3. I almost ruined the tip on my floor . The head not only opened, it passed through the box and almost hit the floor. Again, not the most scientific method, but enough proof for me. 5 Shot your input is always appreciated. Though this is the first time I haven't had to get it off of your site. I would be curious to know how the Rage heads did on the orange test. Bowtech I don't know anymore than the next guy, I'm mostly full of #2. The look I took at the Rage three blades made me decide to never hunt with them.

I have the 2 blades and shot them extensively last night. They performed flawlessly and I can't wait to whack something with them. 2" holes going into the target, 2" holes coming out of it. Impressive...............

RE: Rage Broadheads?
I have the 3 blades and was practising 30 yard shots using the practise head and had a complete pass through an over used block 4x4. It went through it and through one board in a privacy fence that is 4 yards behind it. I found the arrow 15 yards on the other side( 
and don't tell me neighbors either) and the head was in perfect shape. Their Cut on contact worked on 5/8 inch fencing board so I'm impressed.
I tried the regular broadheads out and they fly okay by me. The rubber o-ring that it is on the bottom cuts pretty easy. I went to the local hardware and bought some o-rings and they work great.
