What is a cheap way to make homemade blunts
with stuff around the house? I am trying to
make my own arrows to save a little on bunny
shooting. I loose more than I hit.  

.38 caliber or .357 with some lead shot loaded in to desired grain weight. Then just glue em on.

never thought of bullets thanks

Super deadly, too. I've shot tons of game with them and always come away smiling. Especially with a sharpened C-clip on the end of each pistol casing...

Yeah

I've been using a .38 case, drilled out the SPENT primer and screwed a field point through into the aluminum shaft.
They fly great and whack pretty hard too.
Real cheap to make.

All are wonderful ideas I thank you all.
 I have been thinking of trying a wingnut
held on with epoxy but was wondering about
weight.

Wingnuts are my second favorite improvised blunt. Tough, effective, hard to lose, and if sharpened, lethal beyond imagination. A 5/16" wingnut should weight about 120-grains if I recall. Can't be too sure on that though...

you can even put a washer behind a screw in field point

do the 3/8 nut screwed on then mold a little jb weld on.
the nut wont come off, and you will have a head tough as nails!

What an inpiring topic. Now I won't be able to go to bed for 2 more hours just thinking about what I can invent, and I'm going to try all of your suggestions.

The bullet cases work pretty well. My favorite small game head is still the hex blunt.....those things are indestructable! The only way you'll get rid of them is by loosing them, you'll struggle to break them! And they're not too expensive.      :D

EXCELLENT IDEAS FRIENDS! KEEP THEM CAMING      

Agree with Leopard, Ace-hex

Wing nut or nut and washer combo screwed on a cedar arrow are very effective.

HOW DO YOU CONVERT GRAINS TO GRAMS??

Grams divided by .0648 = Grains

Drill a hole side ways through a field tip just beind the tapered part on the shank. Press a 1" by 1/8" hardend roll pin thrught it. Then grind them to an edge.
