Those arrows look great !
Jeff, between snow shoveling ever hour to stay on top of it I had time to finish off your 2022 NSS bear arrows yesterday.
When adding extra components such as an inner carbon wall it becomes trickier to reach weight uniformity. a
After juggling a few components on my scale they all came in at less than 1 grain variance.

Specs:

- 20" Black Eagle Executioners .001 label removed
- 6" Inner carbon tube 8.5 GPI
- 110 gr brass plus 18 gr add on weight
- 2.25" Vanetec HD
- Spine Indexed
- 500 gr Total with SWAT XMAG up front

Norm, I have a question...

If I was to screw one of the 1 3/16 cut 150's on a Black Eagle Executioner (16.5") with 110 gr of brass in the snout, think it would work on large stuff like Nilgai?

I looked a Tooth of the Arrows website, pretty impressive!! :thumbup:
