Axis field point size
« on: March 17, 2009, 12:54:00 PM »
Does anyone no where to get the small diamiter 9/32 points in more than 125, 145 grains ? Or do you just have to use the heavier inserts to get your desired point weight?

I use both and the broadhead collars to make removal from the target easier.

I've also used UBAR "washers" from New Archery Products...they're getting harder to find but often on sale, I usually buy them when I find them.  They only weight 1 grain and affect nothing but the way arrows pull from targets.

I use up to 250 grain 5/16” field points in my AXIS and MFX carbons with no problems.  The 125 and 145 grain points taper to the shaft for a flush fit and the larger 5/16” points also taper so they don’t affect much in the way you extract them.  Sometimes on my bag target (that has seen better days) they grab some on the inner material, but I’m not using anything but the point and shaft.

There are 125 points called EZ out which are tapered in the back next to the shaft for the Axis and MFX shafts.

I have my shafts flying well with the stock Axis aluminum inserts and a Grizzly broadhead weighing 170 grains. I'm just trying to find a field point set up that that will pull from 3-D targets.

You can get 125 gr. and 145 gr. points for Axis/MFX at Kustom King or 3Rivers.They fit the small diameter and are easy pull points,I think they are EP-18 125 and 145 for the Axis/MFX shafts just look under the screw-in field points.

What V13 said.  Then you can use 5/16 size tips.

The eazy-pull points are tapered on the back, and almost reach down to 9/64.  Braveheart, KK, and 3R have the, I went with Braveheart.  No problems pulling them back from my target.
