I'm a huge Magnus I fan and have been for years. The Simmons Interceptor would be my choice... I've used it on several animals with great results.
They can be a little difficult to sharpen so get a wheelie sharpener to go with them. It does the job.

I like the 2" wide Treeshark glue on for deer and small to medium sized hogs.  Makes for a short blood trail!!!

I second the 165 grain Interceptor. Great heads.

I switched from mag-1s to 165gr. interceptors this season,can,t wait to see how they preform.
They fly like darts out of my 52lb. longbow.

I am using the 135 glue on tigershark with ~70 grain steel adapters.  I try to use "screw-in" 200 grain heads (BH's, blunts, field pts, etc.) if I can.  

I have them shaving sharp, but haven't taken an animal yet.  Hope to report back soon.

I have been shooting the landsharks for the last three years they fly really good and they put them down quickly.

The 165 glue-on interceptors are my broadhead of choice for about 10 years now . Killed a lot of critters with them . As Charlie says they are a little tough to sharpen but Gil just posted a grinding wheel setup that gets them razor sharp , I have to give it a try .

I shoot Tree Sharks. Have had very good results. The last ones I ordered was pretty sharp out of the box.

I have some screw on in 165 gn/single bevel that I hope to try this year.  The customer service is great.  I left a message on the phone and was contacted back that evening.
