Being an older gentleman I've gone to lighter bows and find that the 160's are too much weight so I've been shooting the stainless steel 125s. I do have a question for the people who are not sharpening challenged like me. How would you sharpen these heads? Thank you.

Didn't know there were any stainless steel 125 Snuffers?

I too shoot lighter bows as well as Roger does. Mine is 42# and Roger uses 42# tp 47# and we both use the 160 grain broadhead with 100 or 125 grain steel broadhead adapters. Absolutely no penetration problems with the bigger heads and lighter bows. Sharp broadheads and putting the arrow where its needed from light bows will get the job done.

There is a ton of information on this website as well as many others on how to sharpen one of the easiest heads ever built. Just do some searches for sharpening Snuffers.

How do you guys prefer to sharpen? I have found a file ending in very light pressure does the trick just as well if not better than finely honed.  Bill

Lee Robinson .

They are a great 3 blade broadhead...and the only three blade I held onto. I still like the Abowyer 2 blades as well.
Until next time...good shooting,
Lee

Kelly,
The heads that I have are made by Magnus and are packaged three to a pack. They are labled Snuffer SS . I bought them on this site and as far as sharpening these are a completely different animal.

Grouse

Oh, forgot about those but don't they come sharp?

Touch up of Stainless steel heads can be done the same way as carbon steel.

Innovative and extremely effective broadhead, many new versions have evolved over the years. My only rub was they tend to whistle.  Stand at a target and have someone shoot at 20 yards.  Don't think it makes a difference, just found it interesting.

I love to see and read Kellys post he has probably forgotten more than most of us will ever know about Traditional "stuff"!! I have found a mill file to get the right angle on the blades, than a jewell stick, gets them so sharp your eyes will bleed just looking at them. I only shoot VPA 3 blades and Snuffers now. Shawn

Sharpen them initially with a large file, then finish and touch up with diamond bench "stones".

I do. When I first heard that Magnus was selling the line, I bought "quite a few" six packs off the auction site. Priced between $24 and $28.00. Glad I did. Nice head. Easy to sharpen, and fly great.

This T-shirt I had made up years ago Sums up how I feel about Snuffers, only had a few Made for a couple of close bowhunting friends. This post is not ment to insult any person or other broadhead manufacturer !!  Front    Back     :biglaugh:

Man!!!! I love that shirt. Have anymore??   Bill

SS Snuffer

Put a lot of holes in stuff with Snuffers.
Switched to the SS ones because they spin better on carbon shafts. I had to try the Stingers too. There good heads also but better blood trails with Snuffers.
