Measured mine too, I'm 1/16 over 1 1/4"s. (1 5/16) I'll stick with line 4...

LOL.....I picked up a bag of these in orange (barred) from Miller's Outdoors last week when I shot in a tournament there (with Matt/TN) for about $0.18ea. That was on special....but only 30% off. Do THAT math.

They look great though, Greg

And for some reason I use the 4th line rule, too

Great thread Greg , only confirms what a great move it was Ordering and fletching my Arrows with the MeanV feathers .

I use the second line on all my fletching with the Bitz .

Sharp-looking arras there, Bailsuk!

I see the little cresting pattern at the rear of your wraps... I too would have done whatever it took to get the bottom of the feathers off that so it could be admired. Great job!
