solely based on my view of both heads at the ATA show this year I would go with the NAP I have not used either head but I am thinking about using the NAP 2 blade bloodrunner ... construction is rock solid and no O rings

After using rages since 2008 with 5 kills after 5 shots, I will be shooting the 2 blade blood runners this year. They are fail proof practically in cutting(although any mechanical operation can and will fail, but at least they will make a 1.5" diameter cut even if the mechanism does not work...)

The only thing i didnt like about the 3 blade blood runners was how noisy they were, although its almost irrelevant in deer hunting b/c of how the arrow speed negates part of the speed of sound.

I havent used them but have read bad things about the Bloodrunners and the screws in them failing....some say they are poorly made. I do like the fact they will cut even if they do not open...unlike most other mechanicals. May want to look into that before you buy.

Just found the topic on here...

doesnt seem to be a poorly made head just the lack of lock tight on the screws, look like NAP stepped up and corrected the issue.
