Is there an accuracy advantage to shooting single bevel broadheads out of an Excalibur?
Those are some fantastic looking arrows there, Canon29!!! Thanks for sharing with us.
Good to know. I purchased a Suppressor Extreme from a member here yesterday and ordered a dozen Kraken (rebranded Zombies) arrows from Wyvern's. So I'm just trying to figure out what works best out of the Excaliburs as I've never owned one.My experiences with 375 Edgetac/Shartac BHs , my BD400 and AV3 vanes.
A few years ago, I was asked to test these BHs. I thought they were excessively heavy but was willing to test. I had a set of 20”, Zombies, AV3 vanes and 110g inserts.With lighted nocks, the weight came to about 715gs. I’m down to 3 of these arrows. I plan to get/or make 6 more but with the lightest inserts available.
I had serious doubts that anything good would occur, accuracy-wise. Testing with an Optimizer and a XBR (on 10X) at 50 yards, BH indexed ar 6 & 12, I repeatedly got 1” @ 50 and 1 - 1 1/2” gps at 60 yds.
The terminal performance on my largest bear so far (the one that had run me out of my blind twice in 3 years and tore up my blind repeatedly) was incredible. 50 yard run and dead in 5 secs was much better than I’d ever had before. 47 yard shot. Deer don’t even make it that far.
Accuracy: very adequate but not quite as good as TruGlos, Crossbow Tricks or MegaMeats.
