Jake, I think they weigh 190 with out the bleeders.  I have some 160 Landsharks and they weigh 160 with out the bleeders installed.

Also, glue on Sharks are 160 gr, I believe, but don't accept bleeders.  Still if you are looking for something a bit lighter, it would be an option.

The Interceptor 190s without bleeders are actually heavier and can run over 200 grains. The TreeSharks were the same. Don't know why they do that.

Thanks guys - I am tuned for 175 grains up front, and that weight in a broadhead is hard to find.  I will probably end up going to a 50 grn insert and use any number of 125 grain heads... Just thought that it would be nice to find a good 175 grain head...Know of any??????

The 135gn Tigershark on an aluminum adapter gets you as close as possible to 175gn broadhead.

I've used the 190 gr.Interceptor for years.  On my grain scale they run approx. 195-200 grains w/o bleeders

Good to know Gary - As Beachbowhunter said, don't know why they do that.

Jim - Thanks, I might have to give that combo a try.
