Call Steelforce. They have a new 200gr single bevel that's shaving sharp out of the box. I have some myself.
Also, the 190gr Phat Head also looks super.

Or call Alaska Bowhunting. They have some great 200's, if price isn't a barrier.

Something with 2 blades and sharp-right behind the shoulder.

I like the razorcaps.  I shoot 175 caps.  I also have some 125 Magnus heads with a 75 grain steel incert, for 200 grain heads that I used on hogs this year.

I have a question on adaptors...if you have a 400 grain arrow and a 150 grain broadhead will the 42 grain Aluminum adaptor be considered a weak link?  

Just a thought since the arrow will weight out at around 600 grains.  For some reason I think the Aluminum adaptors seem weak, I think this is because the length of the adaptor that isn’t threaded behind the bevel is very short.  The steel adaptors seem to have a longer piece of metal between the threads and the back of the taper.

I like the Alaska Bowhunting broadheads…thinking about the 200 grain Maasai or 200 grain Samurai broadheads, then again for $10 more I could get the Silver Flames.  Then again I might need to hit the lotto to afford these.

If I were to buy 3 now and 3 more in a couple of months I’d have 6 in time for hunting season.  I could also buy a bunch of Razorcaps for the same price.  Might do both, deer season is a ways off and I’m done buying bows for a while (maybe).

Thanks to all that have replied, it’s great to see what everyone is using.
