    Bowmar's beast broadhead

    Yeah I’m honestly disappointed in another derailed Rokslide thread. I read all 10 pages, and while Zac certainly wasn’t perfect, I agreed with him most of the way through… or at least the points he was trying to make. He got ganged up on and said a few things he shouldn’t have in the end. I...

    Mathews Lift Limb issues?

    Everyone at the pro shop told me there was a TINY chance of a limb failure, before I actually purchased my lift. “No doubt you would ever have to warranty it” were the exact words they used. 5 months and a few thousand arrows through it, they cracked and made a noise when they went out. 70...

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    If it works fine for you, then that’s really all that matters. What If you took 2 different hunters, with the same draw weight and length. One was looking for mule deer in the high country, and one looking for Roosevelt elk, in dark timber. Wouldn’t you recommend they shoot a different arrow...

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    Well that clears the air!! Thanks. You’re launching some serious energy downrange…

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    Gosh, I wouldn’t say pretty easy to do, but you are right. I’m pushing 520gr at 281FPS with 75# and 30”. the reason I asked, is because I knew 520 at 290 was definitely on the upper end of things… just interesting to see what other people are at.

    Whitetail Arrow Weight

    What bow, draw weight and length do you have to get a 520gr arrow at 290FPS?

    Victory

    Thanks for starting the thread Jotis. I do not have an answer for you, regarding the HLR. I haven’t been in the archery game for too long, so take my opinion for what it is. I started filling tags a few years ago, with a 250$ bear bow I got on Craigslist. Wrong draw length and everything...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I never even came close to saying a 6mm was inadequate. You might be that category of person that defends little calibers like they are their own children, if you thought that’s what I was getting at. I shoot a 6.5 creed and love it. But a 338 Lapua is gonna hit harder and do more damage, sorry...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    You don’t have any clue about terminal performance. You relate broadhead and arrow performance, to bullets. Arrows and broadheads kill with less than 100ft pounds of energy as you said yourself. Get archery off this thread … it’s nonsense. And it’s trashing this thread up. I’ve killed with...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Calling my statement “shitting up the thread with large caliber nonsense” was a good way to get punched in the nose, if I do say so myself.

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Then why would I give a f*#% about what the troopers use? See a trend here?

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    You gave me the worlds worst example of an arrow killing elk… then told me to “quit shitting up the thread with large caliber nonsense”. Because I’ve looked over plenty of animals shot with calibers from 6mm-338, and I’ve observed more damage with the larger calibers. Special was honestly the...

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    Yeah I tried just leaving a respectful comment with another user that I agreed with. 6mm 108gr bullets, won’t do as much damage as a 338 cal 300gr bullet. “Buddy” John told me to lay off the large caliber nonsense… I promise I’d be using bigger words, if we were in person.

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I do not care. Go look at a “cartridge selection for Alaska” thread, and tell me what the guides say. Don’t take it from me, just go look.

    .223, 6mm, and 6.5 failures on big game

    I agree! I threw it in quotes, because you’re exactly right. Dead is dead. You can’t kill “better” if they both died. I’ve used 6mm and 338, they all work good. Special John doesn’t think so, but there is definitely a difference.
