bear razorheads.

[beauhunter]

I have about a dozen and a half old bear razorheads. They are yellow & glue on, I'm wondering if anybody knows what they might weigh. I think they are about 135-145grains, but I'm not sure.

Any help is appreciated

I would say more like 125. My screw ins weigh about 137.

[Bill Turner]

If I'm not mistaken they should weigh in about 125 without inserts. If you can wait, I'll weigh one of mine when I get home from work. If you cannot use them I would be interested in buying.

Wow, I was way off. Please do weigh one, I've got time. All of my stuff is in Alaska anyway and I'm in a cabin in Montana.

Do you think these old heads will hold up on a Mountain Goat? I've been trying to look up old threads on them to see if anybody said what they weighed. None of the threads did, but a few people questioned the integrity of the head itself because it's only held together with a few spot welds.

My glue ons weigh 125.  As far as use on a goat, you will likely get a lot of differing opinions.  From personal experience I will tell you that if you hit any bone they will curl up from the point back like an old sardine can lid.  I have seen this happen back in the day hunting Spanish Mountain Goats on San Clemente Island.  To prevent this we used to flatten the tip a little and then bevel it on each side.

Beauhunter- These heads will hold up fine on a mountain goat. I've used these for aroung forty years and haven't had any problems. Lots of good heads out there and undoubtedly many are tougher/heavier duty than the Razorhead but I wouldn't hesitate to use one on any species of North American game. The head's weight is 125 grn. with the bleeder and no adapter when its new. I'm sure that no two of mine are exactly the same because no two have been sharpened the exact same amount. Most are 150-ish with the screw in adapter.                    Grant

Nice, thanks a lot.

I've put a bunch of them on a reloading scale and they've all been 112-117 gr. without the bleeders. Hap

I have about 10 here in the shop and they weigh close to 115 grains w/o the inserts.

Those heads are no good, please PM me for mailing address to get rid of them.

[Schultzy]

Lol Shaun!! :D  The old style bear razor BH's are a good head. Used them for years until they switched up the point, didn't care for the new design. If I remember right they were 125 grain.

Shaun..I'm glad to see someone is interested in making sure that the metal gets recycled on those old heads

and if there are to many to ship to Shaun my shipping address is ........bd

[Mr.Chuck]

Mine weigh out at 110 grs consistantly!

If you notice the price of the old Bears going up, it's that I've been buying up most of them.  My father and I both use them and they're getting hard to find these days.  Nice old heads.

I believe Bear Archery manufactured somewhere around 3.5 million broadheads.bd

The glue on Bear Razorheads typically weigh 112-115 grains without the 'bleeder'.

If you want to use a vintage head to hunt with,that's why.LOL Readily availible on the bay,and proven.I've picked up probably two dozen through here and there buys,including three unused ones.

Mine weigh about 110 on a reloading scale and about 143-147 with the aluminum insert.They'll soon be stuffed with steel adapters.  

[Phil Tuccillo]

Mine are 115 w/out bleeder & 120 w/ bleeder. And you can kill a goat w/ them most definately.

Guys,I just checked some old Bear screw ins I got in about 1970,with bleeders,un-sharpened,they are 153grns!!!!?????
