Full Metal Jacket and Ultra-Micro Injexion carbon arrows are both field-proven on big game for hunters seeking more penetration for bow hunting. In its latest product advancement, Easton has combined these two arrow shaft concepts into one arrow—the Deep Six FMJ. The Deep Six FMJ arrow combines a full metal jacket over an ultra-micro diameter carbon core that results in the most advanced arrow ever available to bowhunters. Deep Six FMJ arrows pull more potential energy from the bow and increase penetration by focusing their mass into a smaller diameter and reduced surface area. This results in less friction during flight for higher speed and more kinetic energy downrange. The ultra-micro diameter also penetrates with less friction for more pass-through impacts to take down game quickly and assuring recovery.
