"Here's a chart I put together showing the inside diameter of some common size aluminum shafts. The chart allows me to readily swap around inserts for various reasons. Folks looking for brass inserts for use in their aluminum arrows or aluminum inserts in their Gold Tip Laser II shafts can make use of this chart.
Sometimes using an insert with slightly more free play allows an arrow that otherwise wouldn't fly correctly with a given hunting head to do so. It's another adjustment for concentric alignment when using hot melt glue.
Aluminum
Size----I.D.
2113 .302
2114 .300
2115 .298
2117 .294
2213 .317
2215 .313
2216 .311
2219 .305
Carbon
Gold Tip Laser II
O.D. 22/64---I.D. .300"
Bstout posted this chart on the Excal forum. Gold tip has a wide selection of inserts and a weight system that will fit in the 2214. I have not done this but I trust his info. He has been doing this a long time.
