I shoot 28 inch draw so my arrows are spine 250 which cost alot more then the 350 spines.
Carbon express piledrivers are pretty good ,price is reasonable like 65.00 for 6 arrows.

From what I've read it does seem like smaller diameter is better but I've read about how some of these smaller diameter arrows I've mentioned have the outserts which some people claim makes it difficult to shoot some broadheads especially fixed blades. Any experience with differences found between outserts/inserts. If outserts are a problem I can probably eliminate half of the arrows I'm considering. I know everyone has their favorites but I'm hoping to find one that fits what I need.

These are the only outserts I have ever shot so I don't have much experience in this department but all I shoot at are stumps and such and I've fired each arrow well over a thousand times and never seen any signs of a problem. I like the tapered effect, once it sinks past the outsert the diameter is drastically reduced for ease of penetration. I shoot a 60# recurve so I take all the extra umphh I can muster up.

Just saw this and also wanted to add I had a dozen victory vaps at one point which had the outserts instead of inserts. I had major issues with the outserts bending. I just got them for punching foam but I wasn't happy with those outserts. I tried putting a deep 6 insert in one of the arrows and it was fine, but figured I might as well stick with injexions at that point. Yes the deep 6 broadhead selection sucks, but there are enough out there to find something you like. If you're sold on the micro diameter arrows, I'd stay away from outserts.

Besides the outserts bending did you notice any other issues with them especially when shooting broadheads. I have also looked at the carbon injexions so it's good to know you've liked them and have not had any issues with them splitting. As you know there is a lot of info out there and to try and sort through it to find out what will actually make a difference will make your head spin. If decreasing diameter is only going to get you a 1-2 more inches of penetration will that really make a significant difference in most cases? I don't know. People always talk about the heavier arrows and smaller diameter and the physics behind it. I'm not saying that is not true I am just wondering will we see such a big improvement that it is worth a switch or the extra money to buy it. That is what I'm trying to sort through.
