Anyone ever use these?.... I had never heard of them before tonight. They're an expandable broadhead. Any idea of where to get these if possible try out?

I bought some several years ago when they got too cheap to pass up. I shot a doe with them to see how they'd perform and she went about 25 yards. The performance was really good, and I had a full sized entry and exit wound. I've moved to fixed blades and probably won't go back to expandables anytime soon, although I didn't have problems with any that I shot other than a Rage.
I was under the impression that the company went under or something happened to them. They're a fairly complicated head, but they do have some neat features. I've think I've got a few left and I'll probably have one in my quiver this year just in case something comes in that I think needs a test run on it. I wouldn't have the slightest idea where to find them being sold currently, and their Facebook page looks like it hasn't been updated in several years.

G - I'd dig around on Archery Talk, there seems to be a decent amount of field reporting on the performance.
It looks like they hit main stream archery in 2009, and closed in 2011, as far as I can tell.
Reading some field reports, small entrance wound, blades deploying late or not at all, and fragile construction - just what little I read.
