Yes, I used them. big hole, sharpened pretty easy, pretty tough. I had some difficulty with them plaining when shot, but some tuning fixed that. I now shoot the 125's for some unknown reason, but thought about switching back.

I shoot the 135s with a 125 grain steel adapter. I love them and have killed my last four hogs with them.

I've been using them since before day one.... it's a long story.
Great broadhead! I use the 150 gr. 4 blade. For 2 blade fans, the 160 offers extra toughness.
Your rig should be well tuned, as mentioned above, to insure straight flight. I've never had a problem getting perfect flight with them.

I've used them for a few years also. I have one that has killed a bull elk, mule deer buck, coyote,(bent the tip on a pass thru on the yote) various ground squirrels, and last year a blue grouse. They are all I carry!

Back and forth between 160 Magnus I and Griz 190. Great head and easy to get scary sharp with a file.

That is my prime BH. Put a turkey and ten hogs down last year. Good trail to follow if they run off. Turkey dropped and flopped.

I have used them since about 1993.They work well and are tough.When I first started using them I shot them into concrete block and they survived, shot them into half inch steal plate, they held together so I straitened the tip and shot them into the steal 2 more times finaly while straitening them for the 3rd time it broke.VERY tough I have started turning the needle point into a tanto to help eliminate any chance of curl.
