Many on here try to get a high (15 - 20%) FOC on their arrows. I have found arrows like this to shoot better for me. You can achieve that with a heavier BH like a 150gr, or a brass BH insert and a 100 gr BH. My thought is you have more BH choices if you stay with 100 gr and get your FOC with an insert.

Try 150 gr Excalibur Bolt cutters and 150 grain field points.

my equinox shoots best with gold-tip bolts with 100 gr. brass inserts and 100 gr. BH.

110 grs............All the Firebolts are the same weight, btw.

I have a bunch of GT LII's, so haven't messed w/ Firebolts, but if I did, 1st bhead I'd try would be the Boltcutter.........

I use 125gr with my Exomax.
This way I have a better FOC than a 100gr, and faster than a 150gr.
