I have a Centerpoint dagger 405 crossbow I love it I killed one deer sep 7th opening day with it 60 yards run 40 layer over dead I was using the rage hypodermic no collar crossbow head and I killed one Thursday night she was at 35 yards I was using my brother's ravin r 10 and she run 20 down hill 20 back up it fell over dead perfect shot I was using the rage crossbow x no collar. I was wondering ur experience with the rage or other brands.

Also will be taking a ravin r10x In the morning it's 20 fps faster than the r10 but it's shooting the rage hypodermic nc head.

I used to use them before swapping to a 4 blade fixed (tooth of an arrow). I have one fail to open on a shoulder shot, arrow still penetrated enough to get one lunch but didn’t open. Ended up recovering the deer, but gave up on expandable after that.

I used them once on whitetail in TX. Also had a failure to open. Back to slick tricks after that. I had better luck with grim reaper when I did choose to shoot a mechanical head.

Same experience as you, haven’t seen them go over 50 yds with a decent shot. Unfortunately I can’t find anymore deep six rage heads so had to switch away

I shot a hand full of whitetail does with them, original 2 inch, worked well though all were shot in the 10 ring so anything works there!

I tried them 1 season about 10 years ago. Killed one doe and wasn't that impressed, not sure if the blades didn't open correctly or what. Shot another that i hit square in the shoulder, broadhead broke off at the threads upon impact so that was it for me. I went back to fixed for many years until I tried Sevr. I've been really happy with Sevr heads, durable and have worked everytime so far. Side note, my dad uses a rage knockoff he gets online from China I think. Pays less than $5 a head and he's Killed around 10 deer with them and they always work great.

I used to shoot the hypodermics for years with no issues. Unbelievable blood trails and never lost a deer. I switched broadheads because I wanted to try something new and not for any issues I had with rage.
