Title: Anyone with a spare standard Gold Tip insert?
Post by: Gdpolk on October 09, 2016, 02:37:00 PM

Does anyone have a single, standard weight insert to fit a Gold Tip 5575 shaft?  

I want to do some point weight testing to see if having a 100gr insert and 125gr head plus footing bareshafts the same as a standard insert with a 225gr point.  The problem is, I threw away all my standard inserts when I went to 100gr brass inserts to keep all my point weights the same.  If I can get the same tuning swapping around I may build some dedicated broadhead arrows using the standard inserts with my next batch and leaving the rest footed for stumping, small game hunting, and target work.

And that's why I never throw anything away. Ha ha
 Let us know how the testing goes.

If you only have one, it's sure to pull out in a target, lol.  I'll swap you a whole pack of them for some 145 gr. 5/16ths field points!
