I picked up 5 of these broad heads at a good price. These will be on the business end of my compound bow arrows making them weigh in at 528 grains. In my opinion they are near perfection. Hardened machined tool steel, a great length to width ratio. While more expensive than replaceable blade broad heads, unless lost they should out last me and a few generations to come.

I´ve been using 2 and 3 bladed VPA 125 grains for a long time, excelente broadhead and easy to sharpen (the 3 blade)
 
Great broadheads. I have used these myself on a safari in 2014. Took a Zebra and an impala. I think the profile of the 150 grain is ideal. Good length that would seem to help with penetration. A solid chunk of steel and easy to sharpen and reuse.
 
I used the 250 VPA's on a buffalo this past July, full penetration, stuck out 6 inches on far side. 300yds, done deal. Great broadhead for sure.
 
300 yards? I am guessing you meant 30 yards.
 
Nope, he went almost 300 yards before piling up. Running with a herd otherwise, I don't think he would have gone so far.
 
They are super easy to sharpen. Unless badly dulled from a dirt and rock strike, a few swipes on a diamond hone does the trick. I finish mine CAREFULLY and lightly on the side of paper knife sharpening wheel with white polishing compound al low speed.
 
We're your 250 grain heads 2 or 3 blade?
 
I have been shooting 175 grain 3 blade broadheahs for quite a while, had 1 head I killed 25 big game animals with it before I lost it.
By far the best broadhead I have ever shot. Forrest

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
