Any will work.
We recommend using the Hypodermic NC +P broadhead. The steeper blade angle and smaller cutting diameter allow for excellent penetration, even with lower draw weights.
Hypo offers 2″ cut at a steeper blade angle, while the Hypo +P offers 1.5″ cut at a more sloping blade angle.

If your bow is shooting approximately 400+ FPS we recommend using the High Energy shock collars with a crossbow-specific broadhead.
Yes
Ferrule measures .320″ (standard) .350″ (XB) Hypo XB has HE shock collar, designed for highest FPS rated bows.
If you are using the proper shock collars for your bow, you can shoot a crossbow head out of a compound bow or a compound head out of a crossbow. The ferrules will be wider or narrower than the arrow/bolt (wider ferrule when shooting a crossbow head on a compound arrow, narrower ferrule when shooting a compound head on a crossbow bolt), but they will still function properly.
The biggest difference is in the base ferrule diameter; the standard measures .320″ and the crossbow measures .350″. Crossbow broadheads will work better out of bows shooting 400+ FPS.
The red shock collars are High Energy collars designed specifically for crossbows. These collars are thicker than the black collars and prevent pre-deployment when shooting out of high-speed crossbows.
If your crossbow broadhead used to use an O-ring, the High Energy Shock Collars will not work.
No. Broadheads using an O-ring would need the orange Legacy shock collars. Only the Legacy shock collars work on an O-ring broadhead.
There are five shock collars available: the standard collar (black), the High Energy collar (red), the 3-blade collar (also black, but specifically for 3-blade heads), the standard Hypodermic Trypan collar (gray), and the crossbow Hypodermic Trypan collar (red).
The Hypodermic Trypan collars are specific to the Trypan broadheads and can only be used on those heads.
All 3-blade Rage broadheads should use the 3-blade collar.
Compound bows and crossbows shooting less than 340 FPS should use the standard black collars.
Crossbows shooting upwards of 340 FPS should use the red High Energy collars.
While there is a tiny arrow embossed on the bottom of each shock collar, the rule is that you place the blades as close to the center of the tabs or petals as possible. DO NOT line the blades up with the slits/notches in the collar.
The new NC heads do not require a shock collar. You do not have to worry about indexing the collar properly to the blades or the possibility of your broadhead deploying in your quiver.
No
Each replacement kit comes with enough blades, set screws, and shock collars (where applicable) to build three broadheads.
Yes.

We recommend replacing the blades of your broadheads rather than sharpening them.
Replace the blades after each time you shoot them.
Foam generally doesn’t offer enough solid resistance to force the blades of your broadhead open. Our broadhead testing is done on animal hides over ballistic.
There really is no minimum KE requirement for this particular broadhead as there are too many variables. Penetration depends on arrow weight combined with arrow speed, so if you are looking for more penetration, shoot a heavier arrow.
There could be multiple reasons you are seeing early deployment: 1) the shock collar isn’t placed correctly on the broadhead, 2) your bow is shooting at 400+ FPS and requires High Energy shock collars, 3) your arrow or bolt could be not seated fully on the string.
There are currently no plans for a Trypan Deep Six.

Make sure the shock collar is positioned so that the blades hit at the solid portion of the collar and NOT in the slits.
If it sounds too true to be good, it probably is. Rage utilizes MAP pricing and dealers are required to sell at a minimum price. Amazon and Ebay are the main sources of counterfeit broadheads. Rage broadheads do not come in multiple colors, and we do not sell in bulk. Colors may vary on ferrules, counterfeit screws are shiny (almost chrome looking) and are metric; we use a satin stainless steel standard thread screw.
