Looking for help identifying these arrows and inserts. I bought them new old stock thinking they were the hunting line but I'm not sure.
"Victory VAP v6 300 = 75-90"
These ok to hunt with?

Yes, they're fine to hunt with.

The 6 in v6 indicates the straightness tolerance of ±0.006".

300 is the static spine (i.e., the standard test method of hanging a 1.94 lb weight from the center of a section of arrow spanning 28" causes the arrow to bend 0.300").

75-90 is the nominal draw weight (in lbs) the arrows are designed for. This can be misleading though because appropriate draw weight varies with arrow length and point weight. Use a spine chart (or calculator) to determine if these arrows are stiff enough for your particular setup.

The inserts are the old victory penetrator inserts. Aluminum and bend easy. I’d look into other inserts like Easton titanium outserts, firenock outserts, or ethics

I believe that's what Victory calls a SHOK insert, which would be considered a "half-out" (as in, half of the insert sticks out past the front of the arrow shaft). The shank of a standard (8-32 thread) field point/broadhead is too large for the 0.166" ID of a "micro" diameter arrow like a VAP, so micro arrows need a half-out insert or 6-40 threaded (aka, "Deep Six") components. I've never used micro diameter arrows, so I can't comment from experience on Victory's SHOK inserts or any other micro components.

What are good Insert/outsert/ collar build options to be able to shoot standard thread broad heads? I have IW v100 that I want to keep shooting with these arrows?
