Glue on or screw in?  Will be difficult to find one that long and wide that light.  The Abowyer Brown Bear and Wapiti heads are close and 175 grains in glue on.

The Abowyer Wapiti is about as close as you'll come with those specs, and an excellent head.

The Zwickey no mercy is like a delta, only narrower. It comes in single bevel. I have some, and after sharpening mine came out to 169 to 170 grains. Pretty close to what you need.

Not single bevel, but the VPA Penetrators come in 175grain and are excellent 2 blades.

Looks like it's between the zwickey delta or Simmons treeshsrk,any thoughts?Wanted a wider 2 blade single bevel like these 2 heads but think I am gonna compromise and use the double bevel because of the width and weight I am looking for.My bow just shoots so well with this weight on the end.And want wide head(at least 13/8 wide)These appear to be the widest 2 blade quality head in that weight that are out there.Thanks for the help.
