Default Magnum Precision at long range !!!

I took the time to make myself a Magnum Series set up with my top dog being the RFA 150 grain Phoenix with a 100 grain steel insert threaded on a 27.5 inch Dangerous Game Full Metal Jacket with a total weight of 790 grains.

Once I finished cutting, and tuning the shafts with field points, I added the RFA Phoenix on my arrow shaft and gave it a shot at 20 yards - BINGO, dead on.

I backed up at 60 yards and allowed myself one shot ( Range checked twice with a bushnell range finder ) and adjusted my HHA wheel to 60 yard mark. I got Sylvie and asked her to come with me so she could help me judge the flight of this Magnum set up. I drew my 84# APA Black Mamba, set my pin in the center of the target and let the arrow fly........straight as a needle and we heard it hit the target but we couldn't see exactly where the arrow went. To both our amazement, it hit dead on where I had my pin set, right in the middle.

We took a few picture to record the moment, Stan, this broadhead of your flies true, to say it flies like a field point is an understatement.

Daniel and Sylvie

Wow, Daniel, outstanding shooting. Definitely has more to do with the Indian than the arrow though

Pleased that the broadhead is shooting well for you. At 84# and 790 grains you better make sure there aren't any Moose behind the one that you shoot You may be packing twice as much meat as you want to.

Have a great day!

Oh boys, I can't wait to get these heads on a 600 grain shaft shooting a 100# Athens Accomplice 32 bow, I think that will say it all, will keep you guys informed of future developments.

Stan, do you provide fire insurance with your broadheads because I know these will burn up flying through the air !!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PUMPED I AM !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stay tuned folks
