Victory RIP .204 Hunting Arrow Shafts – 12 Pack

Victory RIP .204 Hunting Arrow Shafts combine the speed and accuracy advantages of a small-diameter hunting shaft with the durability, kinetic energy and penetration serious bowhunters demand. The .204" small-diameter carbon platform presents less surface area to crosswinds, helping reduce wind deflection while delivering excellent downrange performance.

The RIP is built from 100% carbon fibre and features digital spine alignment, precision weight matching and Victory's ICE nano-ceramic coating. Choose from Elite / V1, Gamer / V3 or Sport / V6 straightness grades and 250, 300, 350, 400 or 500 spine to match the shaft to your bow and finished hunting-arrow setup.

Arrow Grades & Spine Specifications

Victory RIP shafts are available in multiple precision grades and spine options. Choose your Victory grade based on the desired straightness tolerance, then select the appropriate spine for your bow and finished arrow setup.

Elite / V1 – ±.001"

Elite / V1 provides the tightest straightness tolerance of the available RIP grades at ±.001", making it the highest-precision grade offered in this product.

Gamer / V3 – ±.003"

Gamer / V3 has a straightness tolerance of ±.003", providing an intermediate precision option between Elite / V1 and Sport / V6.

Sport / V6 – ±.006"

Sport / V6 has a straightness tolerance of ±.006" while retaining the core RIP carbon construction and shaft technologies.

Always select arrow spine according to your complete bow and arrow setup. Bow speed, draw weight, finished shaft length, point or broadhead weight, insert weight and other components can affect proper spine selection.

.204 Small-Diameter Hunting Performance

The Victory RIP uses a .204" small-diameter platform designed to deliver an excellent balance of speed, penetration and accuracy.

The smaller shaft profile exposes less surface area to crosswinds than a standard-diameter hunting shaft, helping reduce wind deflection. The reduced diameter also minimizes the amount of shaft material passing through the target, complementing the RIP's penetration-focused design.

For bowhunters who want a versatile hunting arrow without moving all the way down to a micro-diameter platform, the .204 RIP provides an excellent middle ground.

Designed for Speed & Penetration

The RIP is designed for bowhunters looking for the speed and accuracy benefits of a small-diameter shaft while maintaining the durability and kinetic-energy characteristics required for hunting.

Its high-performance carbon construction, .204" diameter and SHOK component system provide a versatile foundation for building arrows for deer, elk, moose and other big-game applications.

50-Grain SHOK Stainless-Steel Inserts Included

Each dozen includes 50-grain SHOK stainless-steel inserts designed for Victory's .204 hunting-arrow platform.

The SHOK system places additional weight toward the front of the arrow, providing a strong starting point for hunters looking to increase FOC while adding front-end durability to the finished arrow.

The SHOK adaptor uses a standard 8-32 broadhead thread, allowing compatibility with a broad selection of hunting broadheads.

8-Grain IP .204 Nocks Included

Each RIP shaft also includes an 8-grain IP .204 nock designed for the small-diameter shaft platform.

With both SHOK stainless-steel inserts and IP nocks included, the dozen provides the primary front and rear shaft components required before cutting, assembling and fletching your custom hunting arrows.

Digitally Spine Aligned

Every Victory RIP shaft is digitally spine aligned to support increased accuracy and shot-to-shot consistency.

Consistent spine orientation helps reduce shaft-to-shaft variation and provides a more uniform starting point when building, broadhead tuning and grouping a matched set of hunting arrows.

Weight Matched to ±0.5 Grains

Each dozen RIP shafts is weight matched to ±0.5 grains.

Closely matched shaft weights help minimize unnecessary variation throughout the dozen and provide a consistent foundation for maintaining finished arrow weight, trajectory and grouping.

ICE Nano-Ceramic Coating

Victory applies its ICE nano-ceramic coating to the RIP shaft surface.

The advanced coating creates a slick exterior designed to improve penetration while also making arrows easier to remove from targets during practice and tuning sessions.

Build the Hunting Arrow You Want

Because these RIP shafts are supplied unfletched, you can build each finished arrow around your bow, hunting style and desired specifications instead of accepting a predetermined factory configuration.

Choose between Elite / V1, Gamer / V3 and Sport / V6, then select from 250, 300, 350, 400 or 500 spine. From there, determine your finished shaft length, vane configuration, broadhead and any additional component weight.

With spine weights ranging from 9.9 GPI in 250 spine down to 7.0 GPI in 500 spine, the RIP platform provides options for a wide range of hunting-arrow builds.

• 60-grain SHOK stainless-steel insert
• 21-grain SHOK aluminum insert
• 50-grain SHOK TL204 aluminum insert
• 75-grain SHOK TL204 stainless-steel insert

Why Buy This?

The Victory RIP is designed for bowhunters who want a versatile hunting shaft that balances speed, accuracy, penetration and durability.

Its .204" small-diameter carbon construction helps reduce wind exposure compared with larger-diameter shafts while providing a strong platform for hunting-arrow builds ranging from lighter, faster configurations to heavier big-game setups.

Victory adds digital spine alignment and ±0.5-grain dozen weight matching to provide a consistent foundation for building a matched set of hunting arrows.

Choose from Elite / V1 ±.001", Gamer / V3 ±.003" or Sport / V6 ±.006" straightness grades and 250, 300, 350, 400 or 500 spine to better match the shaft to your bow and finished-arrow specifications.

With 50-grain SHOK stainless-steel inserts and 8-grain IP .204 nocks included, you're also getting the primary shaft components needed to begin your custom arrow build rather than simply a dozen bare carbon tubes.
