The new Robusto, from SEVR, couples the company's patented rear-deploy locking-pivoting blade technology, and features a fluted, hardened-steel ferrule that provides maximum strength and a higher front-of-center (FOC), to help withstand the punishing demands of today’s high-energy crossbows.

The Robusto 2.0 is optimized to fit crossbow arrows, and weighs an FOC-boosting 150 grains for increased accuracy and momentum. Utilizing a 2-inch cut diameter Max-Cut 2.0 blade, the Robusto is assembled with a machined one-piece ferrule and precision-ground tip. Further, forward-pivot geometry prevents blade pre-deployment even under extremely rapid crossbow acceleration, so blades remain closed in flight.

All SEVR models have the patented Lock-and-Pivot blade design, allowing the arrow to maintain a straighter path even when encountering bone or when taking acute quartering shots. Another advantage to the SEVR broadhead is its Practice Lock Practice Mode. Every broadhead comes with a set screw that may be inserted into the ferrule to lock the blades securely in their undeployed position. Since the cutting edges are protected inside the ferrule, the SEVR heads can be used for target practice. This gives bowhunters assurance that their broadheads will hit on target and eliminates the uncertainty of practice broadheads. Finally, SEVR’s Stretch Cut blade effect promises to stretch the hide while cutting for a larger-than-blade wound diameter, for bigger blood trails and easier recovery.

Review: Winchester 400 Legend

Winchester’s new 400 Legend is a streamlined, mid-sized straight-wall cartridge intended to fill the gap between its wildly popular 350 Legend and the notorious 450 Bushmaster. It is—in our opinion—a masterstroke of genius.
