Re: Anyone shooting full metal jackets by Easton?

I just started shooting them this year. I have not stuck anything with them other than the target. Previously I was shooting Easton Epics (not ST, just plain Epic). The Full Metal Jackets get about 3"-5" more penetration on my target at 20-30yds. So far I like them.

KK, is there anything special you have to do with them or can you just screw in your tip and go? Do you think they are worth the exra money? Im shooting epic st's now

I was shooting light epics with 75 grain broadheads. When I started I was shooting about 50# draw. I am now shooting close to 70# and just needed heavier arrows and I went to 100grain tips. For me I had to get new arrows anyways so money was going to be spent one way or another.

As for screw in and go...anytime you change a factor such as arrows you need to retune your bow to ensure accuracy and safety.

my brother shoots them and loves them, constantly tries to convince me to switch. i like the balance of the arrow and i assume they really are much more durable, could be a change for next season

I shoot the A/C/C Super Slim 340. I am looking at The thin full metal jackets as a replacement.
