86, I use carbon-graphite arrows for whitetails with 100 grain Muzzy fixed blades. I would shoot the same rig for elk. <P>The arrows perform well, as do the broadheads. Passthroughs on rib cage shots. I understand why mechanicals may be better, but I sure wouldn't experiment on elk! I would go with what I know, and that fixed blade will install double portholes in'em. I do like short range shots, by the way.<P>Get your feathers red, Talus
