China is of poor quality.
I used them to hunt with and they worked well with my Horton crossbow.
Measure the shaft from end to end, excluding the nock and head.
Depending on the shooter, it flies nearly perfectly straight.

Bolts are very good. For the price, they fly true; I've used a soft target and shot the same bolts ten times without failure. br>I used it to shoot a racoon in the head at a distance of 10 yards; however, the bolt passed lengthwise through the animal and snapped halfway through (it died in seconds). From what I've seen so far, if you hit something with a little more force behind it, they'll most likely snap.
They're fantastic. Here's some evidence. Shot with a 380 FPS crossbow, they're in good shape. I didn't bother with more than three bolts at 20 yards because they were so close. Bolts don't have to be busted. The weight was a smidgeon over 400 pounds. 75% more than 400 grains in price percentage percentage percentage percentage 405 grain is the smallest mass. The highest score is 419. The average mass of the eighth graders is 410 pounds. 533 They take off in a straight line. Wind will have an impact on the larger fletching. Thank you for your time and consideration, everyone. Good luck with your shots.
If my mind changes, I'll post an update. Today, I received two dozen of these. I recently purchased four different brands of crossbow bolts, so don't take it personally if you're the seller or manufacturer. I'll be critiquing each of the four brands. Similar to the other three brands, these bolts have weights all over the place. The smallest weight was 406 grains, while the largest was 431 grains (!). ) from a total of twenty-four bolts That's a significant difference, but it's true of all of these lower-cost brands, with Pandarus having the most consistent weights in the 420-gram range. full-range 425 grains I used a weigh gram (formerly AWS) TOP-100 to weigh all of the points, bolts, and nocks (as applicable). Scale with a value of 100. It's accurate to within 2/10 of a grain, and for about $10 on Amazon, I think it'll suffice. Curled vanes are present in ten of the 24 bolts. So I'm going to try the boiling water trick, the lighter trick, and the hairdryer trick to try to straighten these vanes out again. They arrived in the most dreadful packaging of any of the brands. A dozen bolts are jammed into the box, which measures about 3 x 2 inches. The field points are good, and the weights are surprising close. Approximately 1 grain (plus or minus). a hundred grains That pleased me because I use 100 grain broadheads. 125 grain field points are included in some of the bolts. On the two dozen nocks I received, they are glued in place (permanently?). I couldn't get any of them out with pliers because they were so thick. I prefer lighted nocks, but I'm not willing to risk a nock or the carbon shaft cracking. So, I guess I just bought two dozen practice bolts, or I can hunt with them even if they don't have lighted nocks. You get what you pay for, in other words. I expect these to perform similarly to the other brands. I'll update my review if my feelings on these change significantly. For the time being, three stars.
I recently purchased a brand new Barnett crossbow. I put these bolts to the test before and after I used them. br>br>They appear to be fine out of the box, but when you launch one, it is FEET off. Not by inches, but by meters! br>br>You might be wondering, how far is that? 20yrds. It's unusual for a bolt traveling at this speed to be so far off. At that range, these pose a serious threat to one's safety.
I'm a novice when it comes to crossbows. My first shots have just been fired. I misplaced the three bolts that came with my bow when the sight popped loose and I didn't realize it, so I bought these bolts to replace them. They're the right height and weight for the job. My crossbow, on the other hand, fires at 400 fps, and after 5-minutes of shooting, These bolts are toast after six shots, with one snapping and another's tip coming loose. Isn't that a little on the low side? The field points are razor sharp, and my 350fps bow didn't sink them as far, so I'm guessing it's the power.
They were in close proximity to one another. They did, however, shoot incredible, extremely tight groups on target every time, which is fantastic for target practice.
Okay, I needed some new bolts for my crossbow, so I figured I'd try these low-cost bolts. I discovered that the bolts' manufacturing tolerances are poor, with only about half of them being straight. Six of them could be used for hunting - The other six had noticeable wobble in the spin test, so I'll only use them to uncock my crossbow as discharge bolts. These are likely to work for you if you don't care about accuracy 100% of the time. As I previously stated, you get what you pay for in this case.
They're great for having fun with or teaching kids how to shoot at close range targets. They drop a lot faster than a more expensive bolt, especially if it has a broad head, so make sure you account for this when hunting. With these bolts, I wouldn't go beyond 25 yards.
