Anyone using Ramcats?
I know its subjective to a point, like ford or Chevy....
Ive had good luck with Ramcats in my compounds. Thinking of ordering some 125gns. What sort of arrow/inserts do you use? Looks like 110gn inserts on zombies at 16.5" is a good recipe? Shooting it from a micro 355

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
Ramcats for me, fly incredibly accurate out of my 380 using Zombie arrow. I've shot them out to 60 yards and get the same POI as my field points and they as you know leave a great hole in the animal.. They are all I use...
arrow set is:
16 3/4" Zombir with 110 grain brass insert and a Lumenok and Blazer vanes

RamCat is my 1st choice , 15.5 ZS I'm shooting 100gr. head with the 125gr. blades, out to 50yds spot on, and as was stated above they blow big holes and go thru em like they are paper

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
That's my recipe, I believe. I love the Ramcats. They fly great and do a good job on the animal. The bison in my avatar was taken with a Ramcat at 30 yds...complete passthrough with blood everywhere. That is not usually the case with a bison as the hide absorbs almost everything. The 3 deer I shot with them last year didn't go more than 20 - 25yds.Robfromga wrote:I know its subjective to a point, like ford or Chevy....

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
Jeff, they really do fly good. Even better than my Slick Tricks did. I think it has to do with the way the ferrule is cupped. It helps with turbulence and with penetration by forcing tissue and fluid away from the wound channel as it goes through reducing drag. Search them on You tube. Tons of videos.Robfromga wrote:Need is the opportune word.bellerivercrossbowhunter wrote:You guys are making me need those.. lol
They are a little big though. They fit in an Excal quiver but just barely

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
Great info Keith. Next time I am stateside I am going to pick up a pack and give them a try. Heck if they took a buffalo down then deer and Bear are in trouble...nchunterkw wrote:Jeff, they really do fly good. Even better than my Slick Tricks did.

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
Holy Price Tag!!! I just saw them on Amazon for $65.00 Canadian or $47.00 USD. I thought the toxics were pricey but that's crazy!

Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
100gn are about $30-31 and the 125s are about $35-36 locally.
Re: Anyone using Ramcats?
The last 3 100gr. I bought were 29.00 us. I also bought 2 packs of 125 gr.replacement blades at 16.00 us creates a Franken blade of 104gr. With big 11/2"cut and to qoute others something about design but the holes are huge compared to the cut diameter.
