Ya I agree with George.  The heaviest points I've ever used are 190 Gr grizzlies.  I frankly don't know how far the 5# rule will extrapolate for super heavy points.  I've generally been very happy with points of 125 for deer and only have gone to the heavy Grizzlies for moose.  The 5# rule has been around a lot longer than the current fad of Extreem foward of center balancing Theory.  I have no problem with it just don't see why it's needed.  Did I mention that I'm old and see no reason to fix what hasn't been broken?

Are you willing to give up what you are; to become what you could be?
