« on: August 09, 2012, 03:04:00 AM »

 not sure if you can see but this is a 220 grn fieldpoint thats shoved into a 2317 shaft about 3/4"s inside +the insert i was tuning some arrows at 10 paces  and misses badly somehow on a bad release or something and it hit where my steel door and the steel frame meet and the force of the bow pushed all that into the shaft and blew the uninock bushing out like a bullet the fieldpoint stops about halfway through that black splotch
