Does Anyone Shoot FMJ's Out Of Their Micro 335?

[StormDragon]

I'm bouncing the idea around about getting some to try and was wondering if anyone shoots them or has tried and your thoughts.

Thanks in advance

I have there really tough n heavy in order to get the correct or best foc you have to use a heavy head at least 150 grain .easton makes a seperate brass insert for the shaft which will help if your using a lighter head. In all honesty i have moved on to a zombie slayer with a 110 grain insert and a125 head i think the zombies are just as tough and fly more accurate than a fmj. I have been a lifetime easton arrow user n found it hard to jump ship but when you try something n it works better you change. ...just my opinion lbj

I have a couple dozen FMJ "bolts". Some fletched with Fusion vanes, some with SK-300s. I've shot them out of a Matrix 355 and a Middleton 375 SS (with hot limbs... it shoots almost 385 with a 350 grain arrow).

They're alright. Honestly, I prefer plain old 2219s instead though. In my experience, the FMJs break more easily than the 2219s. The FMJs are a tiny bit more consistent in flight, but not enough to make a practical difference while hunting.

I just picked up 14 2219s pre-made with Easton 3.75" vanes, plastic flat nocks, and easton aluminum inserts. They were on sale for $2.70 apiece. Can't beat that price... so I bought all they had in the store. Shooting them I wound up with about 3" groups using a 175 grain head at 40 yards. Good enough for me, and way cheaper than FMJs!

Anyhow, good luck to you.

Ekkis right i used to love the 2219s there actually really tough . Also they fly best with a 150 grain up front or better 14 grains per inch needs that kind of foc
