Rage Hypodermic Standard 100 Grain

Using these with a Center Point Dagger 405 crossbow & bolts. Flew as expected with Zero drop @32yrds. Opened on impact and the pass-through took it 2 ribs and lungs. Both ribs were sheared off, not shattered. Only damage was from a log on the ground as the bolt flew through the deer. One razor sustained bend back damage and is acceptable, shock color did its job 100%, ending in a full razor and shock collar replacement. 100% Acceptable damage. Excellent broadheads!! That's why I've bought 2 packs. The deer was a Mature Appalachian White Tail roughly 3-4 yrs old, 112lbs dressed. Try 'em out!! Worth the price. Engineering is top knotch. Manufacturing is excellent. Perfect fitment. Ease of use. Accurate

Arrived as described

I got into crossbow archery hunting this year and quickly realized that the prices for so-called "crossbow" broadheads were ridiculous. They appear to be essentially the same kinds of broadheads I had been using for vertical archery for years in a slightly different package. My sons and I used these to fill our Illinois archery tags with crossbows rated at 400 FPS+ and they all opened, cut, and worked effectively, with very short, easy to follow tracking jobs. The only downside to them is that the plastic collars they require for use are small and need replaced after every shot, which is kind of annoying and is a degree of fiddling I'd rather avoid. Still, they are quite a bit cheaper ($24/3 pack when I bought them) than similar designs and work well, so that's a price I'm willing to pay.

seem well made. my first attempt with a mechanical broad head. 12/29/16: This was my 1st deer season with these broad heads. The practice heads fly identical to my field points. I shot 2 deer with them this season. Very Happy with their performance. 1st deer was quartering away at about 25 yards, I was in a 15 ft stand. The deer dropped in its tracks and died. I shot a little high, the 2 inch cut was unbelievable, the tip of 1 blade sliced through the bottom of the backbone and spine, and still took out both lungs. the blades stayed in tack and did not break or bend. The 2nd deer was broadside at about 20 yards. the rage passed completely through destroying both lungs, the deer ran about 40 yards leaving a very easy blood trail to follow. The arrow stuck into the frozen ground, again the blades were intact and still razor sharp. Defiantly recommend these broad heads.

New to the "expandables" this design seemed best. Took a 32 yard quartering away shot on a doe, made a bad shot too far back. 2 tracking hours later I bumped her up and shot her at less than 10 yards broadside and she still ran 60 yds. Blades deployed on both shots but NO FULL PASS THROUGH ON EITHER. Here is the lesson for those making the switch. The broad heads work just as promised and designed!! Shoot heavier arrows! I was shooting 7.7 gpi arrows that worked great with muzzy and thunderhead 100s but will not retain enough energy to ensure pass-through with the MASSIVE 2" blades and the arrow through a whitetail. IF you are switching from fixed to ANY expanding broad head sacrifice some speed (296 fps in a Matthews Ultramax in my case) for momentum on impact.

I have yet to harvest an animal with these broadheads. I will update review once I do. That being said, so far I am very impressed with them. Extremely accurate! I bought them for use with a crossbow, and so far I've had no issues with them opening prematurely. I would recommend buying the ones specifically made for crossbows if that's what you plan on using, as the bolt is thicker than a standard arrow, and the practice tip does not fit them well. My mistake when ordering. They also come with 3 extra slip cams, so if you do want to practice with them you have extras. I've practiced with them and the tip and blades hold up very well after hitting the cube. Still sharp. *UPDATE* Harvested a deer, and they are everything that they are advertised to be! The blood trail was huge. Deer only ran about 80 yards, and there was an astounding amount of blood. Shot through pop up blind mesh, and the blades stayed closed until impact. The hole it made was impressive. Deadly accurate. These will be my new broadheads going forward.

I bought the rage hypodermics for the first time after trying various fixed and mechanical broad-heads. I thought this was my first real expensive investment in broad-heads only to find out the benefit I received from this product far outweighed the price. On first observations, the broad-heads were made of a much better metal than the Chinese off -brand mechanicals, and the practice broad-heads seemed to be a very good addition. I practiced with the practice heads and managed to sight my bow with these broad-heads without damaging my actual broad-heads. This is HUGE and every company should offer them. NOW, for functionality in the field, I managed to put down a trophy 3x3 whitetail at about 50-65 yards. The arrow flew true with the RAGE hypodermics just like the practice broad-heads. Managed to break two ribs on the way in to the buck's thoracic cavity, puncture both lungs, break two ribs on its way out. Beautiful pass through put the deer down. I will buy these broad-heads forever. I TRUST THEM and that's huge when it matters most. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT

Never been a fan of mechanical broadheads. I’ve always shot fixed broadheads for over 40 years. Decided to give these a go after seeing the hole in my hunting partners deer. So far I’ve dropped 2 nice does. Good blood trail on both. Still not convinced to go full mechanical yet. There’s no failures on fixed blade. But these have preformed flawlessly so far.
