It's shooting fine as long as you're grouping well. The biscuit discolors vanes and eats up feather fletching after awhile. As long as the vane is still in tact and not torn don't worry about it.

there's a lubricant that you can get for the whisker biscuit...don't know if it'd help in your situation but it can't hurt anything to try it...it'll keep your whisker biscuit in better condition so it's worth the $5.

Nothing to worry about. Here is a quote from their website.

"Is there any wear on the vanes or feathers?
Yes. Vanes will show wear after substantial use, some brands more than others. Urethane based vanes seem to be the most durable. After 30 to 50 shots a scalloped wear pattern will appear on the outer 1/8 inch of the die cut edge of feather fletching. This does not affect arrow flight. Nor does it progress beyond the initial wear-in period."

Good groups by the way.

Just thought I'd through this out. Is that good groups with points or heads. The only way to know if there's a problem is shooting it through some paper. If your tearing bulliet holes at 6, 10, 15 feet and even more from the paper it's just normal.
