[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 267330, member: 340"] Which Rage Hypodermic? Whats the cutting diameter? There's a few different ones. Also, is 400 grains the bare arrow, or with the 125 grain head on it? And what are we killing? Elk or Moose would be a different story than deer. Even with that info, "max range" is largely speculation. However, in general, and especially with mechanicals, the larger the cutting diameter, the lower the penetration. If you make a good shot through the lungs, that setup is likely quite lethal to 50 yards or more, but if you hit a rib or bigger bone at that range, it won't be good. I would probably not shoot past 35 yards and also consider switching to a fixed blade. [/QUOTE]
