    The 3 bladed terminators always run about 43 shipped..for the 100 or 125 heads... They are built like a brick **** house, and really are a good value.
    The angle to resharpen them make its idiot prof.

    I like three blades, for anything but the largest game. I prefer a hole to a slit, the 1 1/8 three blades is a great penetrating head.
    I have used them game as large are elk and they really did a nice job.

    NAP Hellrazer or Thunderhead Edge heads are excellent fixed blades. I have shot the 3 blade blood runner heads with great success too. New Archery Products make a very dependable head with the sharpest blades!

    NAP spitfire or NAP killzone. Both are 100% lethal when placed up in the business.

    Qad Exodus or slick trick vipers are on my arrows. Exodus seems to be sharper and tougher.

    Another head to consider is the Magnus Buzzcut. Cut on contact with bleeder blades. They fly great and have the best customer service in the biz!

    Anyone shot the Guillotine for turkeys? I wanna know how it makes the arrow fly? What do you use to sight it in? And do the blades hold up on a missed shot(yeah like this really happens;-))? Thanks.

    60 is for the 125 grain. 55 for the 100 grain 2" and 50 for the 100 grain 1.75" blade. I have both the 100 grain and I love them. As far as Fixed blade. Muzzy Mx3's are great too. I know most on here are Slick Trick guys....they are great heads too. I just find it funny that they came out with a head that they based for so long...lol.

    If you want a heap that's like a montec or hellrazor look at the heads from vantage point archery there machined from a solid block of tool steele

    They work very well for me. I mainly shoot the 100 grain 1.75" blade ones. They fly just like my field points too. I bought the new Rage Hypodermics this week. I have to say I'm impressed with them in a huge way.

    i have also looked at the ulmer edges by trophy taker. if i would go mechanical i would choose something like these heads. the 1.5 inch cutting diameter is till large but will help get penetration out of lower KE setups, and the blades swivel around bone which would help. very low profile like the swhackers but they are rear deploying so big entry and exit.
