Rocket Steelheads 125
Does anyone still use them and your opinions?I experimented with a lot of different mechanical and fixed-blade heads, after our local pro shop stopped selling Steelheads for a while. He started selling the again, so it’s back to Rockets for me.!

I shoot the 100 grain Steel Heads. They group the same as my field points. Theyre small in diameter so your not gonna have a 'devastating' hit that you get out of an expandable, but you get really good penetration.

RE: Rocket Steelheads 125
Ditto on 5 shot's comments. From what most folks that use both sizes say the 125 is designed a bit better than the 100 because of the longer threaded section, slightly larger cutting diameter and slightly better durability. I have never had problems with the 100s in the5 years that I have been using them. On many occasions I have simply cleaned them up after usage and put new blades on them. Ready to go.
