Title: Heavy inserts for arrows with ID of .245"?
Post by: threeunder on June 15, 2013, 07:37:00 PM
Anyone using heavy insets in their Victory VForce HV's?

Inside diameter of these arrows is listed as .245".  Anyone able to cross reference to another arrow for me?

thanks
Ken

I believe the most common ID of carbon arrows is .246". If you score the inside of the arrow with a bronze bore brush and lightly sand and clean the insert, it should fit. I don't think .001" will be much of a difference. 3 Rivers has 50 and 100gr inserts. I have no first hand experience with VAP arrows, hopefully someone else will chime in.

Just glue a .243 bullet behind the standard insert. A lot cheaper. Been doing this for years.

The 5/16" Easton/Gold Tip insert for either the 50 or 100 gn brass inserts work well.
