Two setups for me. 18" Zombies, 92gr brass inserts, 2" blazers, 100gr points and plastic nocks or 125gr points and Luminoks. Toxic Broadheads.

I'm using the same 20" FireBolts/150 gr Boltcutters I use with my Exomax, and they shoot and kill great.

18" Zombie's, 92 gr. brass inserts, 2" blazer's, plastic nocks, and 100 gr. slick trick magnums. Currently this is a deadly combo from my set up I am shooting sub 1" groups mostly the same hole from my 380. 3 deer, all pass throughs with one going through both shoulders, recovered bolt 25 yards past the deer.

I like a finished weight arrow around 375gr.

I like 90gr inserts, 18" Black Eagle Arrow Zombies, plastic rear nocks pushing a quality fixed blade head like a Montec, Snuffer or Muzzy.

Paulaboutform has a proven setup, accurate at absurd distances.

I thought I posted a reply but it is gone.

I go light; 18" diablos with 100 grain two-blade rage broadheads. 350-352 grains total. Chronied at 370 fps IIRC. Been thinking about going heavier, but I have a bunch of 100 grain broadheads, and this setup knocks em right down when the shot is good. I do have some 150 grain boltcutters but have never shot em.

Can I find a screw in 50 grain weight? Or are all the added weight in the form of inserts which require too much work to remove and replace.....
