My buddy used a Rage to take his buck this year.  He had about 8" of penetration but it sliced the heart up nicely.  It ran about 40 to 50 yards before expiring.  Really prominent blood trail.  His shot was from about ten yards.

I shot mine with a Montec and had a pass through from 10 yards.  It dropped about 60 yards away without any blood trail whatsoever.  I think it might vary from deer to deer but both got the job done.  He is sold on them.

Complete pass through on my deer with an Xecutioner. Went 50 yards and dropped. Never seen a blood trail like. One blade broke halfway in the brush after it went through the deer. I don't think I will replace the Helix for bigger critters but real happy with them on smaller ones.
