If this has been brought up which I’m sure it has please forgive me. I’ve been running 5mm .204 arrows since 2013. I love how you can mess with all the components and seems to be a fair over all arrow combo. The question I want to ask is how many of y’all run a outsert system instead of a hit. Currently I’ve found a hit insert with a collar is pretty much the strongest thing I’ve found. I’ve tried the focos system by black eagle. The concept is awsom, but the aluminum parts bend. Maybe living in the one our targets are harder from all the rain. Joking aside I’ve been interested in some outserts again and wonder what ones to look at. I was thinking the titanium ones from spokeane valley archery(home state shop). I just don’t want them to pull out”that’s what she said” or bend.
Hit inserts vs…..

From my limited knowledge, a hit would be stronger. I'm in the same boat as to what I want to glue on the end of my xv's. I was going to go neck deep into the MFJJ half outs, but now I'm on the hit/collar bandwagon.

It's interesting to see people always commenting about how halfouts are some big problem, yet I've been shooting them for years with no issues. I think material is a big factor a lot of people are ignoring. I will only use steel or titanium, no aluminum. I've shot into trees, fence posts, rebar in targets, etc and have yet to bend a half out. I have junked quite a few arrows but the halfouts have always been salvageable.

I like the sounds of this. Would you mind showing a picture?

I forgot to mention I run Easton X-nocks in my Victory arrows. I just like how much better the fit, and shoot from my bows. 5/16", 125 grain points fit perfectly on the ballistic collars.

Thank you! I love it, and it keeps me around my target weight.
Those are pretty much my exact specs of my arrow builds as well. I just got some severs to try on deer and might give them a shot on elk as well. I got the 1.75s. I’ve typically ran the qad exodus.
No problems really it’s just the off season and I like to tinker. More or less just threw the question out there to see what other peoples opinions were and if I was missing something.
