Anyone with a spare standard Gold Tip insert?
« 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.

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!
