Default My broadheads wobble

I bought 2 packs of the Magnus Stinger 2 blade broadheads. I put them on my arrows and they wobbled. I put some field points on and they didn't wobble. It seems kinda weird that 12 arrows, 12 inserts, and 6 broadheads won't spin true. I am using the Gold Tip XT arrows. Have any of you guys had problems spinning the Magnus Stingers? What should I do?

Have you tried diffrent broadhead/arrow conbinations. You may find that diffrent broadheads fit diffrent shafts diffrently. Try to mix and match until you find the best combination.

Did you use a high speed cutoff saw when you cut your arrows, so the inserts are in square?

Well I find it hard to believe that magnus would let 6 heads go out bad. I know Magnus now spin checks each head before it leaves the plant. It is possible however. I would make darn sure it's not your arrows first. Try some differnt brands of heads to see. Your proshop should be able to help you out. Use a roller or spinner, and not the "spin on the tip method" If you actually do have bad heads Magnus will replace them free.

I think I found the problem. You know how the heads have a weird shaped tip? You have to focus on the very very tip of the head. The other part was an illusion. I will take them to a shop just be be sure.
