G5 MEGAMEAT Test

A buddy of mine is using these as his primary deer roaches this year… he hasn’t stuck anything other than a broad head target with them yet… but he’s claiming they fly perfectly true to his field points and are penetrating deeper than the rage mechanicals he was using previously… he’s pretty sold on them for now
 
Like the testing showed: Light is excellent. Blades are extremely sharp. Opening is excellent. Cut size is excellent. All that helped them get a fairly high score and will take down a lot of animals.

Penetration is decent, largely boosted by the blades tending to close when they hit softer spots.

Blade durability is weak; one is the weakest of any mech on the market. With most hits on an animal, that won’t be an issue. With some, it will be a issue.

How all that affects anyone’s choice to use this head or not is up to them and their own personal needs/desires for what they want a broadhead to do.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
