I am set-up for Elk and such and use 130 grain Muzzys. Muzzy also makes a 145 grain 4 blade that was just a little to heavy when I tested them years ago. The tip is where the extra 15 grains live.

well if you need a couple to abuse let me know. I have a ton of old ones, laying around...then again I dunno if an old one, after the torture of many mmm mm mmmmisses/targets/heat would cause a bad reading on the testing. I would be interested to see what you find to be the best of the best in the 2 blade cut to the tip. or any of the cut to the tips. I have a couple new snuffers and woodsmans laying around, not to mention a handful of zwick eskimo's I be putting to good use. I could send ya the a snuffer, woodsmen, and ok, an eskimo and maybe a magnus if I can scrounge one up. I know us trad guys would love to hear the results!!!

Lilhunter, I have tested the snuffers. Delta and Magnus made, and several of thier screw in two blades. I have not tested the woodsmans or any of the Zwickeys. I want to thank you for you offer. I will send you an email tonight and we can work out the details. It would be intresting to see how all the differnt cut on contacts do &quot;head to head&quot;, no pun intended.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Yes, that would be a great test. I have a feeling the Magnus vs. Zwickey will be about the same for the same grain weight. The Snuffers vs Woodsman (3 blade), I don't have a clue which will perform better. A lot of people swear by Woodsman.

Just a little update. I tried the 145 gr First Cut and it flies just like fieldpoints just as they claim. It seems like a VERY durable head and I don't think I will have any problems with it. The only complaint I had is that one of the heads wasn't razorsharp out of the package. I wish I had never tried a mechanical head in the first place what a big waste of time and money...
