Any one have a chance to check these out yet? They are a bit more expensive to say the least and the limited amount of broadheads available are kind of a downer although Muzzy makes a broadhead for them(which is the brand I use). Thinking about testing them out when I return from deployment.

I have only read about them. They are supposed to be similar to VAPs. I will probably pick some up to give them a try, but for hunting I think I will stick with my FMJs.

I use the ST Axis arrows and have wondered how the FMJ's perform. I am leary with them bending on me.

I dare you to bend an FMJ...I don't think it is possible to bend one, you might break one trrying to bend it but it is one stiff arrow.

You CAN bend an fmj, its not that difficult :chuckle:

Looked at the new Injexion deep six arrows. Was thinking about giving them a shot. I have shot Axis arrows since they came out, and then switched to the FMJ's once they hit the market. The FMJ's are the best arrows hands down I have ever shot! Extremely durable, and extremely strong. You can bend them, but it takes a lot. They'll probably break before you bend one.

I use Beman MFX, which is a small diameter arrow. Don't know which has a smaller diameter. The Beman comes in a spine of 300 (stiffer than the 330) and 10.7 grains/inch (a bit heavier). It does penetrate targets deeper than larger diameter arrows which should translate into better penetration on an animal and the narrower diameter should respond less to cross winds.

Bought the fmj's and bent one first week. decided they suck and switched to axis

I have yet to see a FMJ bend. I have been shooting them for a couple years, very strong and great penetration. No arrow is going to bend or break as long as you are accurate and hitting your target...
