    I bet size one will work with 300s if your planing on using epoxy. If you want to try them buy them and if they dont fit i will buy them off you.
    I have size one and 2 ..but i only have 350 victory.

    thanks, I sent him an email and we've been back and forth. I just ordered the last dozen for the RIP 300s. He said he wouldn't be getting any more for a couple months so I got lucky.

    Thanks again

    Did you install the hits yet?
    If you didnt and you plan on using the vpa footers keep inmind that they have a flange in the front...so install the hits a hair shallow. Some broadheads have very short threads. I havent had any issues but i am just really picky about wanting things just right.

    Yikes, I did. Hopefully they still have enough thread to bite. Otherwise I'll have to take you up on your offer.

    I had one in like 6 dozen over the past couple years, and honesty it was probably my fault during the install.

    Look into ethics inserts.

    too late for that.
    I finished all the arrows today- the VPA footers were perfect. Thanks to everyone; especially Trial- this is the first batch of arrows I've built myself since back when XX75s were top of the line and Arizona EZ fletch was the new hotness. I ended up spending more than I would've had I bought them complete but that was due to trial and error with some components and buying crap I didn't need and now can't return. Live and learn; but now I think I got it down.

    I had forgotten how immersed I used to get when doing a batch of arrows and how both satisfying and horrifying it is to Robin Hood a shaft you built yourself. Can't wait to feel that again:bow:

    good luck this season boys
