300 extreme test run

[Kingwouldbe]

I was asked if I would like to give the 300extreme a test run to see what I think.

 

First, I'm not a big 3 blade fan, I do like the hole they put in the animal, and they seem to cause massive bleeding.

 

They also flew great out of my set up, Habu Vyperkaun 60lb@28 650 grain arrow.

 

This is a vary well constructed head, there pretty also      

 

It left a Blind Man's Blood Trail.

It also jumped right through.

   

Not the biggest hog, but my mouth is already watering for BBQ.

Nice.     Very nice.         I am a fan of 3 blade broadheads.  

[Kingwouldbe]

Night wing, I'm keeping an open mind    :p

i noticed that they aren't a glue on head, so what weights are they available in?

[Fritz]

Deadly looking head! Congrats on the pig!

King- You're my hero! Good job on the hog.

[Al Kidner]

Good pics mate and thanks for posting. I like the head myself but the price is another thing. Lucky I'm being sent one as well to try out.

AK.

This may not be the right thread for this but the price of these heads was brought up again.  (Which I think is fine, as it is a very valid point for many people.)


Does anyone know if these are machined (or "cut and grind") from metal stock or are they formed by pouring molten metal.  (Sorry for lack of the correct jargon.)

I've been thinking a lot about the issues in making (and the price therein) of broadheads.  I've got some hair-brained ideas about using some of the "powdered" metals.


BTW, if I had the money for "super broadheads" this would likely be were some of my money went.  For now I need to keep to the good ole muzzys that have so far done well for me...so far.

Soilarch,

Poured of molten metal = CAST, thats the word your looking for. Yes they are cast. The quality on these babys is second to none. At present these are real cheap. If we were paying what they really cost to make none of use could afford. Like anything of quality you get what you pay for. I've got six of these heads and I've killed five critters with the same head. As long as your using them for big game hunting, the cost of a broadhead is mere peanuts compared to all your other gear.

Congrats Dave on a fine hog and nice shootin. I think you'll grow attached to the right three blade, I did.

These heads are mfg. with a MIM process, harden to 50-52 RC prior to hardening heads are compressed at 14000 psi.This gives the head maximum density, of course all this cost money hence cost. Heads are produced in California USA, tooling and design in Canada. I hope you all like them, a small game head ( small cost too) is in the works to complete a 300gr system . Thanks for the nice pics Dave.

King, I see you have a small feather with the heads. What size are you shooting?

[jonsimoneau]

I think that as long as you do not loose them the heads will probably end up saving you money since they are virtually indestructable, and will last a very long time.

I really wish they would consider one that would top out at 200 gr. for us fellows who shoot less poundage. For example I shoot 50#, and most of my arrows top out at around 550gr. I use a traditional lite at 28" long. The 300 extreme makes it about 630 gr at the very least. I use the ww and snuffers and would sure switch to a one piece of this quality. Does anyone know of another arrow I could use with these old Kodiaks that i could end up with say 550gr?
