I shot 250 grain VPA's one of the two years I had to shoot left-handed due to a bad shoulder.  I believe they were the 1 1/8".  Went 7 for 7 on deer with complete pass thru's on 6 of the 7 deer with a 51# bow.

My thoughts: They are  Damm good broadheads! Unless you are going for moose or bison or shooting a bow under 50#'s, I would use the larger broadhead for everything else in North America.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

I have never shot the 1 1/4 heads, but I have probably taken 25-30 critters with 1 1/8, deer and bear.  My setups have been 47-54.  No issues whatsoever.  I hope to take a Javalina and maybe a hog with them at LTR.

Along the way I have accumulated way too many broadheads.
Zwickey, Delta Nubbins (110 &130 grains), and Snuffers in 100 and 125 without inserts.  My preferred is the 100 Grain Snuffer with inserts yielding 125 - 130 grains. I though about trying g the 2 blade Nubbins this year just for the 2 blades vs 3 as I am now shooting 46#.
