Any one using the Rages, better check the O-Rings, They dry rot over the summer, Had to change them last year & this year. You can pay too much at Rage's websight about $9. for 10, or $24. for a kit that includes new orings w/ replacement blades at a place in Bordentown NJ. Or just buy the o-rings from McMaster Carr Supply Aprox$2.00 for 100. They are 3/16th ID. by 5/16 OD. material is buna

It is an exact replacement, shot 2 deer with the replacement rings so far. They are 5/16" OD. the ring is approx. 2/16ths" ID is 3/16" I will try & get the actual p/n, I believe it is the medium hardness

They do sit into a grove.Just checked.I would have to measure with dial calibers but thr O rings look to have a diameter (width) of about .050"

I've heard A LOT of great things about those slick tricks! I'm thinking of making the switch to the next year. I shoot G5 montecs now. I really don't have a complaint about them other than the price. Then again they are great broad heads. I might get a pack of the slick trick and play with them off season this upcoming year.
