Let’s face it, most shops sell you shafts out of a 144 arrow box display running a slight offset at best. Get you a good jig running an aggressive helical and watch your groups shrink and and your broadhead groups tighten way up. Start playing with front loading, different fletching and stuff if you feel up to it, nothing ventured nothing gained. Good luck if you chose to do so!

Buy nice or buy twice!

I currently run the Axis but want to try the FMJ’s in a 300 spine.
Yes, they are cut on the same type of saw. Higher the rpms the better.

YOU DO NOT NEED A SAW! Unless you want to do extreme tuning. Yes, little changes in arrow length can change arrow tune.
I fletch all my own arrows, even when I buy prefletched, I cut them off to nock tune each individual shaft!
So, save $300 and get them cut to length at the shop or online vendor, then use the Lumenok arrow squaring tool to squre both ends.
Then Insert tune: http://youtu.be/hAULB9uYRUE
Then nock tune:http://youtu.be/88BcMt7PvwY
Way more important to spend money and time on good inserts and tuning.

Thinking of purchasing a Bitzenburger jig...how did you guys decide between the right or left helical jig and clamp? I am a lefty and not sure if that plays into the decision.
For whatever reason, my simple minded instinct tells me that i want the arrow to rotate clockwise as it leaves my bow. Not sure why, but that feels right to me.

Also, a left helical will give more clearance to the cables if needed.
Having said that, most people will never notice a difference either way (except for the clearance if needed); but since you asked...
