Not the right one with a well tuned bow and proper fletching. Give the Mangnus stingers a try along with the g5 B-52's and a steelforce two blade.

Thanks again, 5Shot. I posted this question on seveal sights and you did answer it on one of them. I did pick up the B52 and like the way it looks and feels. I've just never used a 2 blade and probably should have looked into it before buying. Oh, well!
Thanks again,
Ray

My BKII shoots 290 fps with 350 grain arrows at 60 lbs and 28" it will stack 2 or 3 or 4 blade broadheads . I think it depends on the bow if you have a bow that has a marginal ture and go with lighter faster arrows your groups may get worse or maybe they'll get better if you are changing the spine for the better . Archery is trial and error sometimes what you think will not work does , and sometimes what you think you know will work does not .

It mostly depends on if the arrows are decent quality to begin with. Then, whether or not you have the skill and patience it takes to tune a bow good enough to control that much speed. And then, you've got to have your shooting form pretty darn squared away and be able to execute a tournament grade shot out of a treestand under all weather conditions with no warm-up shots. Other than that, no problem.

with a great tuned bow no problem! if you can tune really well you can just about get any head to fly good. I would suggest a simple of things that might make your life easier at those speeds.
1. use feathers
2. use helical
3. use the best carbons you can buy (straightness goes a long way!)
4. make sure your inserts are straight & the heads do not wobble.
