It's like riding a bike: once you learn it's really easy and you never forget. When looking at replacement parts theres rings, springs and all kinds of crap. So it appears only the fatal steel is available for deep six inserts. I am shooting the 100 grain Fatal Steel this year. New machining, making them smoother, and a larger 'foot' on th blade for slightly more leverage. The 2015 Fatal Steels were completely re-vamped. There were complaints that the Fatal Steel felt "rough" opening by hand. I reworked one with a diamond file, and made it run smooth, but who wants to have to do that with what they cost? I did not like what they did to an axis and a pig one of my hunting partners shot. If you have any regular Grim Reapers with 3 blades, any length, try opening one. What is it with the Fatal Steels that you don't like? I bought a set to use this year as my first Grim Reaper experience but I haven't released one on a deer yet.įor being Stainless Steel, they are flimsy and don't open worth a hoot. They won't break off on a shoulder or a ham either. Run a 2" through the ribs of one and you'll buy in. You guys shooting the 1 3/8" on whitetail are not giving Grim Reaper enough credit. The others simply didn't matter whether they bled or not since I could see them fall from where I sat. 70 yards at a walking pace, never had to stop or bend over. But I put a big gash in the ham bone of a buck when I yipped, and still blew out his off side shoulder. The shorter blades would have to be stronger, it just makes sense. I have never had a blade bend or break, and have killed every single deer shot with them dead, dead, dead. With my 70 lb limbs I use the 2" jobbers. I have the 1 3/8" too, and I loaded them up with my 50 lbs limbs.
