Carbon Crossbow Bolts 16 18 20 Inch Hunting Archery Arrows with 4" Vanes Replaced Arrowhead Tip (Pack of 12)

These are perfect for practice!

Good price

Bought these, as a new crossbow shooter, to learn and practice with. Didn’t want to start off with my higher dollar bolts. Good thing too!! During sight-in I Robinhooded one. Straight through the nock and split half the shaft. A friend missed the target completely and hit a boulder shattering another bolt. That’s 2 of 12 down. All 12 costing the same as just 1 of my good bolts.Doing a roll test the straightness seems close enough for government work. I’m not currently feeling OCD enough to break out the rollers and dial indicator.So far the nocks and inserts seem secure. Fletchings were slightly curved from the tight packing, but a quick ironing straightened them out.Tips are just cheap field points, but weight is consistent. Bolt weights did vary though. With points on most ranged between 398gn and 405gn with only one being 415gn. Not too shabby for practice.

Went to range, shot 25 and 50 yards. They fly fast and straight. They performed exactly like my carbon headhunters. I found no issues.

These aren't high dollar bolts, that said, it's a crossbow and you shouldn't expect them to survive that kind of energy on impact with harder targets. For the price though, they fly true and they work, and if you are shooting hay bails or something, they will work. Don't expect them to be top notch, for the price, and you will probably be ok with them. If you want better quality bolts, go somewhere else and spend the extra money but for the price, but these are great for shooting soft targets or that one shot that counts YKWIM.

Great quality fast shipping

You need to weigh every arrow and adjust accordingly. 3 were 390 to 394 grains. 6 were between 370 and 374 grains, easily matched to 385 with a couple brass washers. 3 were at the advertised 385 grains. Once I adjusted the weights they flew straight and true, same as my factory arrows. As for the heavy ones. I am debating on what to do with them. Drill small hole through middle of the nock?

I was very impressed with the consistency of the pattern at 35 yards. All within a 2 1/2" area. That's better than I expected for the price I paid. I'll buy them again when I need to.
