A few days ago a friend gave me a Slick Trick standard 100 to try and I couldn't believe how well it shot for a fixed blade. I've always had issues with fixed blades and accuracy. I've been able to them to shoot ok but I could never get them to match the accuracy of a mechanical like the ST did. Dose anyone have experience with the standards and the magnums? Do the magnums fly as well? What about penetration?

I've used both and now use the 125gr heads which, IIRC, are considered their "Magnum" heads. They also fly great (same as my field points) and again, IIRC, the only differnce between the two is cutting diameter and blade width/weight.

The cutting diameter is about 1/8 inch more with the magnums.
Price is the same and both can be bought in 100 and 125 grain, the standard comes in 85 grain.

Slick trick standard is a great head. My buddy shot his elk with a standard.

I've broken the blades on the stds a couple times on deer, but they are great heads, fly just like a field point. Bought a couple packs of Mags and Razor Tricks to try this year.

I'm still using the STD in 100 grains, they fly very well for me. I found they fly closer to my field point POI than most other heads. Whitetails in my area are pretty small, so haven't look at the Mags.

Standards for me, watch deer fall within 50 yds with a double lung shot!

Standards, 85gr. Worked so well I haven't felt the need to look at another BH since...

Slick Trick Standard 100's are awesome... I get a lot of complete pass throughs on big game (including elk) with these shooting a total arrow weight of around 425g out of a 70 lb draw PSE Mack-X. Cant speak for the magnums, I've never felt the need to try them. but the standards bleed them out quick when you hit the boiler room.

only use the 100 gr, but glad to read that the mags shoot similarly. i strictly whitetail so 100 is more than enough for me up in nys. puts 'em down.
