RE: Hey 5shoot
ijimmy,
I thought I would bump this up for you so that 5shoot sees this thread....
He did test the Revolutions and I think they rated pretty well overall though he found that the blade collar tended to decrease penetration....the added width was the culprit.
I am sure he can comment more.

RE: Hey 5shoot
Yes, Frank pretty well summed up my results. They are a good head, fly great, open fast, and have very little chance of deflection due to the way the blades open. They are also fairly strong, and hold up well in my plywood tests. They didn't do as well in the steel drum, but then again only a couple of mechancicals survive the steel drum! Frank is also correct about the coller, it does impede penitration somewhat, but I think for deer size animals you won't have any problems at all provide you are shooting a well tuned setup with at least 55 ft/lbs of KE. I would feel confident using them.
