MAGNUS SINGLE BEVEL 150 gr Broadhead Test

Less width of cut is needed with a good single bevel broad head as the twisting through the target creates a nastier wound than the traditional double bevels that do not rotate. This head could another 0.020'' in thickness and a steeper angle grind to produce more rotation. Don't get me wrong it still did very well but I believe my additions would make it even better.
Magnus is a great company. They stick behind their products 100%. I called with a question and the owner answered the phone right away and was willing to answer any questions I had. Great guy to speak with.

That’s definitely a fine broadhead! I’ve been a long time fan of Magnus, I’m so glad they finally released that head…it’s going to be a game changer for wild pig hunting!
Thanks for sharing your test results with us!

Can’t beat a Magnus head in my opinion. American made, using American materials and American labor. Scary sharp straight out of the package, amazing customer service and of course their lifetime replacement guarantee is amazing! Plus even in today’s economy these heads are very affordable. Magnus for my money!

Very good performer. Good well soon John.

man, this is going to be the one for me! Usual Magnus quality and single bevel. Yep, this is the one.

#1 broadhead in your testing sequence in my opinion. First time I've seen a broadhead punch a hole through a cinder block and not bend or break. WOW!!

..Hello Mr. Lusk 🙂👍🏻 I enjoy your videos very much. Thank you …. I have a thought : why doesn`t the broadhead producers focus more, on a smoother transition (sorry for my bad english) from the cutting pointy arrowhead to the ferule and shaft ? If you took the arrowhead you just tested, and filed/smoothed the start of the ferule down, so it would be “sharper” and start closer to the actual blade, wouldn`t it then penetrate deeper ?. Wouldn`t it be easier for the arrow to “work its way through more layers” in your cardboard test ? Best wishes from Denmark

I want heavier grain options

Less go!

Looks a lot like another handful of inexpensive single bevels like the Crimson Talon Clever

Purchased 2 pack for these Texas hogs

While broadhead tuning with Magnus broadheads I actually hit the magnus head in the target with a fieldpoint. (Always shoot the broadhead first so as not to cut your fletching). Sent a picture to Magnus, Mike himself actually responded and sent me a replacement within a few weeks. Can't bear that.

Nice. Now, offer a 200 grain version

Filled my freezer season after season with the 150 buzz cuts. Awesome company also!

Wow it spun perfect after the brick test I just hope he makes it a little wider

Do they come in 100 grain?

Should test the Iron Will SB150 Buff. Essentially the same thing just with thicker and with better quality steel.

John, when you shot the concrete block on the first shot it looked like the knock came off but in the last frame the nock was still there. What did I see fly off the shaft? Also, and I’m not trying to pit one against the other, but can you say what you see as the differences between the Crimson Talon Cleaver 150 and this Magnus 150?

The fact that it rotated only 5° kinda defeats the purpose of a single bevel.

Well, it's a Magnus. Of course it is going to be excellent!

Could it get any better? That is an awesome head. 👍👍🔥👀

Best broadhead company imo. USA made! Magnus user for years. Debated on these for my upcoming bear hunt. Man I wish they offered 125 grainers. Had a pk on release but sold them regrettably. May have to get a pk. 50 lb dw not sure? 455 grs

Solid broadhead great video

I have taken many animals with Magnus heads, and their warranty is amazing, plus the customer service is beyond great..
I personally feel, you can't find a better head, doesn't matter which one you try..
I know that's a very bold statement, but, i would say try them, you will not be disappointed..
Geat video as usual.

Looks like a copy of the GrizzlyStik Maasai.

Dang that is impressive after hitting the concrete!

Straight edge please not curved. Don’t what to have to buy a sharpening system to keep them sharp.

Not bad. I'd still prefer the wider cut and shorter profile of the Black Hornet.

Which 2 or 3 broadheads that you’ve tested had the most rotation for single bevels? Thanks and love your videos!

If I have a 28 inch draw length what arrow weight do you recommend with the 125gr head ?

Looks like a twin to the Crimson Talon Cleaver, my favorite head. I didn't get the angle. It's a bit smaller diameter than the Cleaver. I'll say this right now. Whoever makes a 1.5 inch cut Cleaver type single bevel will take over the single bevel market,,,,and it's not hard. Crimson Talon Croc is 1.5 but without the Tanto tip,which WAS being worked on but now, not sure what's going to happen.

Magnus has always produced great heads at a fair price. Glad they entered the Cleaver market.

This looks like a beast ! Hope your doing better , good to see you release a video

John what are your arrow specs? Draw length? Thanks for the content

Not impressed!

Basically a grizzly stick…

How in the world is this design an improvement and top dollar at that. Such a sham. If this style was around 30 years ago it would be so out of date. It’s called a double bladed Bear and the single bevel actually seems primitive by any modern standards.

How can you forget to mention how does it fly? All the other stuff is nice but if it won’t hit the target your review was wasted energy

Serious killer blade with excellent stats thanks 🤝

Why so small cutting diameter??? Disappointed 😢

Would love to see a total single bevel showdown unbiased just all side by side comparison

Cool thing is if you don’t know how to sharpen or don’t want to they sell a 3 pack of blades for only 15 bucks!

Just need this in a 200 grain

Been hunting with them for 15 years. Never fail.

I imagine the buzzcut would perform just as good?

How well do they fly from a fast crossbow?

Does it come left beveled?

Your testing and videos are the best i've seen. I actually did a durability test on an arrow and used some of your testing on one of my videos for the arrow test. Your video on the sver you tested led me to shoot the sver 1.75s this year because of how well it held up as a mechanical broadhead. Love the video. Big fan! Also, you can see I made a horrible shot in my video I posted with the sver! If i wasnt shooting a big mechanical thats rear deploying i might not have been lucky to have found the deer. So you may have even saved me from losing the buck with your testing! Haha

Sorry I’m a newbie…..are Magnus stingers double bevel? So in a nutshell single bevel broadheads rotate during penetration where double bevels go straight through correct? Also, if I understand correctly theirs right and left cut single bevel broadheads and you pick which one based off which direction your arrow spins during flight for example if my arrow rotates clockwise I would want a right cut single bevel correct? How do I find out which way my arrow spins? Lol….sorry for being a rookie

Great video! I’ve Been watching your videos for a while… one thing I’d like to see you do as part of your test regimen is documenting actual broadhead weight as advertised by the OEM. I think it would be interesting to see if the broadhead looses its mass weight throughout your testing??
