Have used Easton arrows for 50 years….wont stop now…i don’t believe in the match grade for a hunting arrow… but nice those who do have the option from Easton… also that added cost for match grade is beyond my justification for hunting… but again I understand those of you who have deep wallets and the need to have that status…my elk and deer will die just how they have with axis arrows for years lol… apparently the internal organs don’t care what hits them… cheap or not…love the Easton arrows and company… nice job Easton… another’s great arrow to choose from in your line….also a great job to PJ….as always appreciate the video😊
Very cool to see Easton fletching hybrids. I’ve thought that vane profile should be the new standard for a while now. Much more clearance around rests and cable guards while being quieter than the short high-profile vanes of the past.
Sirius Gemini 250 and 300 spine …….. great arrows and if you move to 250 spine you don’t lose the purpose of a lighter gpi arrow. 300-8.65; 250-8.68….. super durable…. Tune and group great.
Nice arrows, but a bit too light for my taste, probably nice for those long range Midwest hunters. Where I hunt in the east coast, in the woods with thick brush, with maximum distance being thirty yards, most of the time closer than that. I will stick with the Easton FMJ 5mm 400 grain, my arrows with the HIT insert and collar weigh 465 grains. When they hit the target, the target feels them.
They are not rigid enough and tear easy when shooting into targets….. but the main reason is being a draw length of 31.5” with 29.25” arrows why would I put a vane on the rear that weighs 8-8.5 grains? That’s 25 grains that greatly affects my FOC negatively. Using a more rigid vane like the TAC DRIVER or Bohning X3 that come in between 5-6 grains I keep the weight minimal and put the weight where it’s needed…. On the front end and I can still keep my arrow between 465-480 and get my FOC between 15-16.5% with a 125 grain broadhead and a Podium Titanium 50 grain half out or 57.2 grain Podium HIT insert and collar. With the lighter GPI on the 5.0 300 spine I can be at 16.7% on a 460 grain arrow.
@@Buck279l i have shot the max stealth vanes thru 3D targets, into dirt(Arizona dirt-lol) and carpet targets for several years with great results. I have nothing bad to say about them. Both 4mm and 5 mm arrows. They take a beating. I use Victory arrows and use the primer pen and their glue. Sucks to buy but they do good. Getting ready to test their stealth Hybrids on a new set of RIP TKO's.
Like a said to each his own……. Every hunter has their favorites. For me I’ll stick with the TAC DRIVERS and BOHNING X3. Good luck to you. Just don’t understand shooting a lighter GPI arrow and sticking extra weight on the back end where it’s not needed.
@ That’s fine, but to buy them from Lancaster pre fletched is still, $260. This by no way a bash on Lancaster, the industry and companies set the standard on pricing. People are going to say it’s because I can’t afford them, not true. I’m for the budget minded hunter. I feel the industry is getting ridiculous. Innovation is awesome, and yes cost goes up because of it. Maybe highlight more budget equipment for us, show us what real world average bow hunters can afford. I do like to see the latest technology as do most people, but there way more every day Joes buying equipment than there are quote on quote professional archers/hunters. Keep up the good work, maybe we’ll see more budget minded equipment.
@ So the reason we did a video on this arrow is because it was just introduced today…..When a new budget friendly arrow is launched we will do a video on those.
This was a terrible review, the purpose of these arrows is not the speed game, but to be able to build up the front of the arrow to have a higher FOC without creating a 500+ grain arrow.

when will you have these in stock

how much do those vanes weigh?
PJ
When will y’all have some 300 spine shafts back in stock?
Any word on new stock date for 300 spine?
Do they come in left had helical already made ?
They are only factory made Right Helical. You'll have to fletch them yourself or have a shop do it for you if you want LH.
When will they be back in stock/start shipping?
Which are you looking for? We have some now…..

You can build this arrow that heavy too and just put the weight in the broadhead and/or the components. End up with a much Higher FOC.
Thick arrow to
Will Easton discontinue the Axis 5mm Long Range arrows?
They don't make the long range in 5mm...its a 4mm
@@dustinennis6691 I meant to say the existing Axis 5mm.
Yep, it's one of their biggest selling arrows.
Doubtful, probably keep it for heavy builds, its too popular
Not a fan of any AAE Vanes…. But to each his own
and thats because???

Agree, the AAE vanes they put on these 5.0 Match Grade are one of the heaviest vanes there is. Bad vane choice for this arrow.

$260 a dozen 😭 No thank you. My max range is 30 yards. I’m fine with the standard Axis arrows.
$205 for bare shafts

Mfjj said he made these arrows. Came up with it an all
He didn’t say that. Ugh, you people.
I made these arrows. Came up with it and all.

It LITERALLY has "High Velocity" stamped on the side of it...
