What's the most accurate fixed blade head on the market?

Every time I try new bh's against my Solids, I find that my Solids are still most accurate relative to fp's and most precise as well.

I really like the deep six solids. But those damn things break to easy. I have broken/bent 4 just practicing with them.

I believe they are guaranteed. I have a couple that I've bent by hitting rocks but never just practicing or killing an animal. I do not shoot the deep six.

They are only guaranteed if they fail on an animal. I've called for replacements b4

I am not sure which fixed blade is the most accurate on the market, but I'd have to say the Toxic head is the least accurate fixed head I've ever shot, period. I say that with confidence as well.

Broadhead accuracy

1) bow tuned so bareshaft has clean vertical or lateral nock travel upon release of the arrow
2) a grip so it coincides and consistent at giving clean lateral and vertical nock travel
3) straightest and tightest tolerance arrows
4) heads that don't have any wobble to them ( you will be surprised how many Broadheads actually have some wobble to them
5) outserts or half outserts are prone to have some wobble and can rob energy, resulting in a low impact point
6) choose dynamic spine accordingly for your setup

When the arrow, insert, Broadhead, are all spinning true, with a bow that is tuned to clean lateral and vertical nock travel, a grip that is repeatable to deliver that, results are very good Broadhead accuracy with many heads out there today. The most accurate at long range will be the heads with less drag

I've only used Thunderhead 100s with zero issues since '92. Haven't had a reason to try anything else.

The poor toxic guy is trying really hard to hype them up again. I guess the new cool factor has worn off with the silly hunters who were buying them and they are trying to drum up some sales.

Can you believe that the #1 broadhead based on quantity available in one of the interior Alaska shops is the Toxic head? Crazy. They even have a wall full of the Tom Bombs.

Are there even turkey in Alaska?

I didn't have time to read the entire thread, so forgive if this was mentioned. Steve Specks (S&S Archery) sent me some Solid 100 gr to try. Loved them and have hunted two seasons. Tough, accurate. Just need to kill a buck now.

Ramcats are pretty accurate. Basically a field point Ferrell with blades. I think the short ferrel makes them so accurate

In recent weeks, I've tested the A-TAC quite a bit and have found it to be in a completely different class, as far as forgiveness in long range fixed blade flight. I have found Solids, Helix, Exodus, and Slick Tricks all fly about the same--and very good at that--but the A-TAC is quite a bit better.

What makes it more accurate ? All the others you listed don't hit with your field points but the A-Tac does ?

Having a hard time seeing that one

They all shoot relatively well, but I can get consistently, significantly smaller groups with the A-TAC. There are times I can get the other ones to group like my field points, but the A-TAC just seems less sensitive to form and wind and consistently groups better.

Interesting

I might have to test them out but I can pretty much pile the other ones you mentioned right with field points out to 100 yards. Now in the wind the 2 blades seem to have less effect than 3 and 4 blades, probably due to less drag.

Yeah. I think you have a much more consistent and accurate form than I do. When I am really focused on my form and shooting super well, those others all shot very well. But when I'm not at my very best or in some wind, I can still drill the A-TACs. I am not sure why, but there must be something in the aerodynamics to make them more forgiving.
