Still learning archery. I shoot 340 Easton as well. Can you Explain the difference in the way they shoot? And do you have to have a different sight tape per arrow? I may sound dumb but just trying to learn more. Also great video
So the Easton's were under spine because I use to shoot 70lbs and I switched to 80lbs and basically caused them to be too light and weak and so I had to drop down to a stiffer arrow. If I shot both arrows then yes I would need difference sight tapes but I only shoot the Victory RIP TKO's now. I hope that answered your question!
@@primetime_addiction yes it did. I have 11 Easton axis that have been used for practice and hunting, but I want to build a n arrow for potentially going to tac and 3d stuff and just trying to decide. I hate to just discard 11 arrows. I guess I could build two sight tapes for each and hunt with one and target practice with the other
@@Peanutbutter475 what sight are you running? If you wanted to do that, my suggestion would be to just take off the sight tape you use for your Axis and save it and then sight in your bow with the lighter arrows for TAC/3D. Then when hunting bc season came back you could slap your Axis sight tape back on. I will say this, for the first 3 years I’ve gone to a TAC event I’ve shot my Easton Axis, they are a great arrow and fly great at TAC events. I really only switched bc of the insert/outsert system Victory had for their arrows and it was just a bonus that they were lighter.
@@primetime_addiction well, that’s the kicker. I’m looking to by a sight and depending on if I needed to buy a sight tape for a second set up, I was going to let that help me decide what sight to buy. I think I’m getting paralysis of the analysis and just need to shoot more. But your information really helps. I’m going to stick with my arrows for now and then just slowly tinker. Accuracy and form is more important than anything I am realizing
I think what he’s trying to say is that with a lighter arrow like the RIP, you can play with your FOC to help “pull” your arrow. I’ve shot axis for fourteen years now and have nothing bad to say but they are heavy. Switching to the rips this year as well because I want to play with FOC. Don’t get it twisted, FOC is not that important. Focus on your form and shot process first.
Did you test 250 vs 300? Just wondering because their spine chart would suggest 250. Got my Mach 30 ds in today (80lbs) and I am planning on running rip tko as well so just looking for experience with similar set up. Thanks
Okay, that makes sense, I will use Easton then. The tko spine ailment never worked for me anyways, since once I cut the arrow the line was never right lol

It is crazy that the 250/300/300's are within .1gr of each other. It definitely shows how much confidence Victory has in their shafts.

No I did not bc I have a short draw length (27”) so my arrows are short so it suggested 300’s for me.
Got ya. Thank for the reply man!
No problem man! @@jarredmeadows8160
You could’ve used any .204 components on the axis just the same as the TKO lol
Yeah I know but I also like how much lighter my TKO is compared to my Axis
Isnt victory tko none usa made arrow
They are not. Easton are USA made.
Okay, that makes sense, I will use Easton then. The tko spine ailment never worked for me anyways, since once I cut the arrow the line was never right lol
The carbon xpress maxima sd is better than both them arrows
Maxima SDs are ok. I shot them for years, but they're no victory TKO or Easton Long Range.
