The 360grs does include the 100 grain broadhead. Have shot this weight for years and it’s killed every buck I’ve hit. Shoots flat for the 70lbs I pull

I’ve contemplated going heavier but haven’t made the jump. Might have to someday just to get my site tape gaps easier to read due to my aging eyes.

What weight do you shoot with what poundage?

I shoot 518 grain pulling 73 lb. The heavier arrows hit quite a bit harder, especially if you hit bone.

Thanks for the thread.Great point about broadheads magnifying errors/issues.Shooting assorted broadheads magnifies them further-especially past 40 or 50 yds.

OK Roksliders, I just finished up my 500 arrow broadhead test on the Matrix. Still going strong! This was 500 Ironwill 100's, ranges of 20-80 (probably an average of 50 yards), arrows are 370 gr total, Gold Tip Kinetic Pierce Platinum from a 70lb Athen's Convixtion Bow.

I’m seeing similar results. I would say it is a push... maybe slightly less durable than my Rhinhart XL, but a lot more options being able to swap individual blocks.

I’m back. Obviously I slowed down on shooting after archery season but still shot weekly and kept track of my broadheads into my Matrix to see how many it took to finally get a pass through. It finally happened; the 612th arrow pierced the entire module. Look close and you can see it next to 611

Pretty happy with this durability. While this is my first premium target, it certainly outlasted, by far, my previous foam targets. Time to order a new module.
