Magnus stringer weight question
« on: April 07, 2015, 05:47:00 AM »
It looks like Magnas Stingers come in weights from 100-150 gr. Are the replacement blades the piece that added to the weight? I was assuming the stems are all a consistent weight. I have 125 heads I was hoping to convert to 150 by just changing the 150 blades.

The ferrule on the 150's are slightly heavier (thicker) than the 125's. Switching out the blades alone won't be the best solution.

Adding to what Tom said the actual blades for the 125 and 150 are the same, it's the ferrule's that make up the weight. I like the 150's just to have the heavier ferrule. I've broken some 125 gr ferrule but so far, not a 150.
