    Has anybody tried these? I bought a pack of 12 for $26.99. If they're not as high quality as the original hypodermic's I'll just use them for varmints but I thought I'd give them a try for that price!

    I did. I bought 2 packs and they were junk. I would never use them on a deer. I am going to use them though to shoot at coyotes so I don't ruin my legit hypos. I also use the practice heads and they work fine.

    I saw some of these for the first time a week ago and they were honestly junk. They weren't very sharp. Rattled more than usual.

    We also have had a few people try to return open packs of rage with the fake ones in there.

    That's what I plan on doing too if they're junk. Might try using them on turkeys too

    They are junk and made from junk metal. I would not buy them do to being a knockoff and the manufacturer basically being a thief producing them. But that is me. The Chinese are doing this with all kinds of products like golf clubs as well. I use old broad heads for coons, armadillos, etc.

    No way would I use these. One company spends the R&D dollars developing a product and another company steals the design, produces cheap, inferior knockoffs and profits from it. Not saying that broadheads are not overpriced but just something wrong about the design stealing and inferior product trying to be passed off as original goods. JMHO.

    the broadhead is what does the job and the arrow is the delivery method. For the sake of the animal I would never use o knockoff. im not rich but I save my money and buy the best I can afford. I shoot rage chiz tips and i know that if I make the shot the animal will be down quick and clean. spend the extra few dollars, you next shot might me the big boy.
