    Anyone else observing a slight rattle of the blades when installed? Never had this issue with any of my other Rage broadheads, and I've used them all. Right now I have 2 blade chisel tips and Trypans in my quiver.
    Last night I installed the Trypans and it seems like the "new idiot proof shock collar" might be the cause of this. I've tried tightening down the blade screws too, but results are the same.
    I know there's a thousand reasons to choose an alternative broadhead and I have tried, and enjoy shooting many others, but I enjoy trying new things.
    $46 for a three-pack of broadheads that come without a practice head and then they rattle? Is this the type of quality control we're having to put up with?

    I have them and yes mine do to. I have a buddy that shoots rage and said that he had the same issue with the hypodermics also. He puts a really really small amount of wax in the top of the blade channel where the top of the blade is at to stop it. He says that's where the problem is. It doesn't take a lot at all so don't over do it. Let me know if t works for you.

    I have the same issue. They are very noisy in the quiver. From Hunting out of a tree stand with quiver usually off my bow , I didn’t have to much issue using them. However, if you do a lot of spot and stalking or shooting with the quiver on it would be a issue. On the the bright side I did ended testing them on a buck and they preform really good. Blades are in perfect shape, however they did dull but that is expected.

    Yes I’ve noticed this also. Also I had some blades fall out of one of the heads the other day & I drew on a buck & noticed that one blade on the head was deployed. I want be using them anymore. Replaced them with the ol’ faithful regular hypo’s
