you can always use the 100 grain inserts and tap the back of the insert and add 25 grains to the rear of the insert

3 Rivers has the brass glue in/ glue on for broad heads. They are for the 9/32 Beman MFX. Don't know if that is what you are looking for.

What shafts are you using?  Gold Tip just came out with 100 grain brass inserts and they accept the 20 or 50 grain weights.  I have some on back order so I can't look at them for you, but supposedly they are the same new design GT used on aluminum insert a couple of years ago.  They are much harder to pull out than the old design.

I am using Patriot shafts, which accept the standard 100gr inserts from 3 Rivers. If these are the same size as Gold Tips then maybe their new weights will work?

If you happen to be using a Beman MFX or Easton Axis that use the H.I.T. inserts you can find 50 and 100 gr. inserts at 3rivers and the MFX's for sure now come with 75 gr. inserts that have a 50 and a 25 gr. section lightly joined that can be separated. Combining these affords you any weight insert you want. For the 5/16" inserts it's pretty easy to cut down a 50 grain isert to your preferred weight and combine behind a 100 gr. insert.
