I've tune a light pound bow :help:
Abowyer Brown Bear is pretty close. If you get the glue on version you could probably hit right on 250 with the correct adapter.
Tuff heads have a 225, what's 25gr. amongst friends
How about a 155 grain Grizzly and a 100 grain adaptor??
I use grizzly 185 glue on with 75 gn insert. Although RMSG is supposed to be making a 250 gn solid one piece screw in. Tge ones they make now, I think 200 gn look very nice
RMSG makes a 160gr glue on, should be close with a100gr adapter. They are starting to get some more choices in their new line of heads now. Great heads, I killed my deer with one this past season, still sharp enough to shave with after the shot!
With the right ad altre you can make most at 250,they are what I use.
Go with 160 Grizzly's, plus a 100 gr steel adapter. RMS has the best price. (http://www.rmsgear.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=1539&idcategory=84) Just make sure you align them properly and get them as straight as possible.

Exactly
May wish to evaluate the Tusker Concorde single left wing bevel 250 gn screw-in.
Trad Gang sponsor 'Braveheart' carries them.
I'll echo Warden's recommendation. The 185 grain Grizzly uses the thickest steel of all their versions, even the 200 grain Kodiak. The lightest steel adapter you can buy is 75 grains...using a steel adapter instead of aluminum will make your arrow significantly less likely to fail. You would be at 260 grains with this combo, which is plenty close enough.
Who sells the 75gr steel adapters?
Bluemoonrising I got mine from A&M I think? But I have seen them elsewhere also. Maybe Tuffheads? I think they have steel and titanium in 75.. Tge titanium are really expensive though.
I meant A&H
I'm using 75 gr brass glue on adapters with 175 grain Abowyer Brown Bears.
RMSGear has a 250 gr screw in, I just got the 160 gr glue on to throw on 100 gr adapters. There is nothing to dislike about this head.
125 Grizzly gule on with a 125 screw in adapter
i'd go a grizzly and a steel adapter. the weight combo you'll have to work out for youself.
I take the easy way. I get in contact with Abowyer and order x number of my favorite heads, which is the 175 grain Wapiti. I tell them to include adapters to make a total 250 grain head. There are many fine broadheads out there, and I would shoot most of them. For a 2-blade SB head, I have never been able to top the Abowyer for quality.
Kevin you need to give the cutthroat a try!
Kevin is right on about the Abowyer Wapiti! There are a lot of good heads out there, but I have found Abowyer to be top notch in every respect. The Wapiti has taken more than a few critters for me, and in every instance have filled my freezer! I think prolly the sharpest, and easiest to keep that way with the KME! Gary.
200 grain Grizz Kodiak with long aluminum adapter. RC
There is an updated post on the RMS Gear blog showing some impressive looking pictures of the Cutthroat against some hogs! Can't wait for their heavier weight screw-in models to be released :D
Yep, the Cutthroat looks like the best of all. I'm looking forward to the heavier weights myself.
185 grain LW Grizzly w/75 grain steel adapter...not exactly 250 but with sharpening...eh.
Kris
I just got this email from RMS on their 250s "Yes, that is the next weight that we are going to add to our lineup. Sometime this summer. We're in the middle of moving our store, so the broadhead project is on a very temporary hold while we get settled in the new place.
Thanks for checking. We'll keep everybody up to date. Have a great day!
