200 grain broadhead needed...what would you do?

I need a good 200 grain broadhead combo now that I have switched to 400 spine carbons.

I'm thinking about using a Grizzly of some sort and a steel adaptor or a STOS with a steel adaptor.

I Might consider a NAP Razorcap in the 200 grain addition.

What else would you try, I like Magnus and Zwickey heads so those are under consideration also.

I was also considering adding some of the new break apart brass adaptors and with the 100 grain adaptors I have now.  I could use the 50 grain piece and the 100 grain normal brass adaptor with my 150 grain Thunderhead 2 blades; I have 18 of these with a ton of replacement blades.

Basically I need 300 grains out front so that is ultimately what I need to come up with.

Thanks,

Josh

Do a  100gr STOS and a 100gr adapter if possible or 2nd choice is the 125 stos and 75gr adapter

Why not try a 100 grain brass insert with a 220 grain Muzzy Phantom? An extra 20 grains can't hurt that much. OR take the bleeder blade off you'll have a 200 grain 2 blade.

I would shoot some fletched broadheads before you decide.I've found that a longer broadhead makes up for some weight when tuning.

For example,with a PL I owned I had to bareshaft with 190 field tips to match a 150 WW.

125gr Snuffer + 75gr adapter... that works for me.

100 grain brass insert and if ya want to shoot a grizzly use a 42 grain long aluminum adapter and a 160 grain grizz!! Too many ways to list to get to 300 grains up front. Shawn

I've like the Phantoms since they first came out...pre-Muzzy.  

I like the razorcaps, grizzlies...I'm in trouble now.  :thumbsup:

I use the Razorcap i have furrels in weight of
125
150
175
200

I like it it allows me to use many differant arrow combos and still use the same blades

...Already some good responses here, so I'll just add my two cents for consideration as well.  I shoot 220-225 grain BH's and primarily use Phantom's or Grizz 190's with the long adapter.  Both have performed flawlessly for me on all sizes of critters.

I have recently ordered some Tuskers, so I'll be trying those out as well.  If I like them as well as the above, I'll be in high cotton for sure!

Can't go wrong with the Phantoms or Razorcaps. Any of the 160 grain two blade like Grizzlies or STOS only need a normal long aluminum bh adapter...they weigh about 40 grains.

Those Abowyer that have been on a few threads lately sure look nice. Haven't used 'em yet though

I use a 100 grain brass insert and a 100 grain Magnus 4 blade Stinger. The smaller diameter broadhead with the extra weight really gets great penetration. Give it a try. I highly recommend this setup over the wider heads.

i shoot a 200grain abowyer, i take a 135 grain bonehead and grind the nose off a steel insert till it's 65 grains. It's a little more work, but who doesn't like to mess around with there setup, they fly great  
and i haven't had any problems with the heads coming apart. The  other suggestions sound good as well
