Well of rail i assume is the arrow vane/feather slot/channel .056 Blazers do touch barely & .056 Fusions i knowed the Fusion 3" are .045 & they don't touch/rub. So i would say any from.045 up to .052 should clear easy

Ch
I had some success with the AAE Max target vanes in 2" shield cut version. However, I need to qualify that success. This was with field points or nibbs, I'm not sure they would stabilize broadheads, never tried it. If you'd care to try some, PM me your address, and I'll send you some in good time.

All the best

Blazers have been re-designed and are slightly lower in height. You may want to look at them again.

I just switched all my arrows to 3" Fusions and I'm very pleased with them.
They look sweet and are holding up pretty good so far.
