Default ST Axis shafts and wobbly heads???

I recently bought a dozen neweaston axis shafts. The problem is I can't get my heads to spin straight. What really kills me is I can get one to spin straight, set it down, pick it up and spin it again and it wobbles !!! I don't get it! I've even spun some of them and they start out spinning straight and then start wobbling in mid-spin. This plays havoc with my accuracy. I've never had this much problem before. I don't know if it's because the axis is such a smaller diameter shaft that it doesn't provide a stable base for the head to seat on, or if the inserts don't have enough glue and the inserts themselves wiggle inside the shaft or what !!

I currently shoot thunderheads 100 gr. , but have also tried two otherheads as well - Muzzy and Crossfires, same results.

About to pull my hair out !!! Any help/ advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks - cap.

I don't know alot about them, but maybe the heads aren't screwing tight, and coming loose? Perhaps there is too much glue on one side of the insert causing a weight imbalance? I don't know for sure.
