Re: G5 Deadmeat Expandables performance?

I buy my arrows in dozen lots. I take each arrow and write a number, in pen, on the cock vane - 1 through 12. Then I shoot them all five times each at 25 yards (bow in a shooting vice) and chart exactly where they hit. The four of that group that consistently landed closest together (from the chart...

Re: G5 Deadmeat Expandables performance?

I locate my cock vanes with a Ram Tester ( just bought a Firenock PAPS) and if one doesn't group with the rest, I try diff vanes as the cock vane. I think that when you get one that won't group with the rest no matter what you do, there's something wrong with the shaft so I toss them. Thanks Boo, I...

Re: G5 Deadmeat Expandables performance?

I would echo what Keith and Dan said you have something else going on if the RamCat's don't fly true. I see no difference out to 40yds versus my FPs. My son shot a nice 10pt this past weekend (vintage 335 micro) and hit next to last rib on a qrt away shot took out a lung sliced the heart and cut th...

Re: G5 Deadmeat Expandables performance?

I think if it's made by G5, it's good. Question: why are you not still shooting Spitfires? They remain the broadhead I always go back to. SW Lost a big buck, thought I had a double lug shot, watched lumenok take a sharp turn upon exit, I'm thinking it deflected off front side rib missing off side l...

G5 Deadmeat Expandables performance?

Just picked up a pack of these to try, haven't sighted in yet. Currently shooting 100gr Ramcats but not satisfied with accuracy, just not as accurate as Spitfires I used to shoot. Anyone have good experience with these?

I've not received mine yet, I see where some are having trouble with the new triggers not cocking correctly some of the time. Anyone having this problem?
They said Trigger Tech was aware of the problem and working on a fix, hopefully that's what's taking longer to replace.

Re: Hawke XB30 Crossbow Scope

Mine has 30mm tube, very good in low light. Has 5 degrees of brightness settings, ok for my old eyes. I will try to find wildcatters review, I'm always upgrading something. :lol: Thanks Keith

Re: Hawke XB30 Crossbow Scope

Good scope, don't use crappy mounts that come with it. Get Hawke competition mount rings. The ones you see for sale new are probably NOS, I don't think they make them anymore. I would buy another in a heartbeat.
