I recently bought some 17/64 inch field points at the local Sportman's Warehouse in Tucson.

IIRC, they also had 1/4 field points, but I did not see any blunt points.

I have made field points work as a blunt of sorts by putting a small diameter flat washer on the field point and then screwing it onto the shaft.

Worked pretty well so far.

Split a field tip with a hack saw.  Get a piece of 1/4 metal banding.  Cut out a triangle.  Use two part epoxy or solder it to the point.  True it up with a file.  Super squirrel point but it will stick in a tree.  Bill

Ace Archery makes their Hex blunt in a 1/4", 75 grain size.  Awesome heads!!
