Default Gold Tip II Facts? What are they??

I have the Miller Killers and love them, but just curious what exactly are they? I see in the BHSS site and catalog they offer Gold Tip brass inserts and aluminum threaded nocks, but they have several different weights. I have been looking at my arrows wanting to destroy one all night so I can weigh the inserts and see, but can't bring myself to breaking a good arrow. Do any of you guys know exactly what they are?

I would like to know the difference as well. I shot the regular Goldtips now.
Are the GT II's better?

Brass insert @ 110 grains
aluminum nock @ 22 grains
3 4" vanes @34 grains
bare GT II @ 173 grains
100 grain tip of your choice = 439 grains of sheer joy!

Wait a minute! I go to the shop in 110 degree heat, rummage around to find pieces,parts,pieces, find scale, weigh all this crap, find pen and paper to write it all down, weigh it all again, and you have the audacity to accuse me of bsing Jason? I'm beginning to like Boo better than you!!

Thanks for the info guys, I was camping all weekend and just came home, looks like i missed alot of info! I also did not realize the brass weighed so much. Sorry you had to work in the heat Dan! I am glad to have the info! Its only been in the mid 90's, but with humidity as high as it has been, it should just be raining all the time! It sucks around here right now!
