Field notes

The Gold Tip Hunter is the standard-tolerance version of the 6.5mm-class shaft with a.246-inch inside diameter, taking a GT nock and the Accu-Lite insert.

Its published spines run from 300 at 9.3 grains per inch to 500 at 7.3 grains per inch, held to a +/-.006-inch straightness that keeps it affordable.

The.246-inch bore uses the standard 8-32 point thread through the Accu-Lite insert, so standard field points and broadheads fit.
