Arrow Grades & Spine Specifications

Victory VAP Target shafts are offered in three precision grades. Choose your preferred straightness grade and then select the appropriate spine for your bow and finished target-arrow setup.

Always select arrow spine according to your complete target setup. Bow type, draw weight, draw length, finished shaft length, point weight and component configuration can all affect proper spine selection.

Elite / V1 – ±.001"

Elite / V1 provides the tightest straightness tolerance in the VAP Target lineup at ±.001". It is designed for competitive archers looking for Victory's highest available straightness specification in the VAP Target platform.

V1 combines this precision tolerance with digital spine alignment, closely matched shaft weights, micro-diameter carbon construction and Victory's ICE coating to provide a premium foundation for competition arrow builds.

Gamer / V3 – ±.003"

Gamer / V3 provides a ±.003" straightness tolerance while retaining the same fundamental VAP Target micro-diameter carbon platform.

It offers competitive shooters an excellent balance between precision and value while maintaining the VAP Target's core performance technologies.

Sport / V6 – ±.006"

Sport / V6 provides a ±.006" straightness tolerance while retaining the VAP Target's .166" micro-diameter construction, digital spine alignment, matched-weight specification and ICE coating.

V6 provides an accessible way to build around the VAP Target platform while maintaining the same fundamental shaft design.

.166 Micro-Diameter Target Performance

The Victory VAP Target uses a .166" micro-diameter carbon platform designed for speed and accuracy while minimizing the amount of shaft surface exposed to crosswinds.

A smaller shaft profile can be particularly beneficial during outdoor target competition, where crosswinds can affect arrow flight as shooting distance increases.

The narrow VAP Target platform gives competitive shooters a purpose-built foundation for creating fast, efficient and precisely tuned target arrows.

Built for Competitive Accuracy

Target archery rewards consistency. Small differences in shaft construction, spine orientation, finished arrow weight or component configuration can become increasingly important as distance increases and groups tighten.

The VAP Target combines precise carbon construction with digital spine alignment and close weight matching to provide a consistent starting point for building a matched competition set.

Digitally Spine Aligned

Every Victory VAP Target shaft is digitally spine aligned to promote increased accuracy and shot-to-shot consistency.

Consistent spine orientation gives competitive arrow builders a uniform reference when cutting, fletching and assembling a matched dozen of target arrows.

Weight Matched to ±0.5 Grains

Victory weight matches each dozen VAP Target shafts to within approximately ±0.5 grains.

Closely matched shaft weights help minimize unnecessary arrow-to-arrow variation and provide a more consistent foundation for precision target shooting.

ICE Nano-Ceramic Coating

The VAP Target features Victory's ICE nano-ceramic coating, creating a slick exterior surface on the carbon shaft.

The coating is designed to improve penetration and make arrows easier to remove from targets, which can be particularly useful for competitive archers shooting high volumes of arrows during practice and tournaments.

8-Grain IP .166 Nocks Included

Each VAP Target shaft includes an 8-grain IP .166 nock designed for Victory's micro-diameter arrow platform.

The included nock provides a lightweight starting configuration while still allowing competitive shooters to move to an optional pin-bushing and pin-nock system when desired.

Optional Stainless-Steel Break-Off Target Points

Victory offers stainless-steel break-off points for VAP Target arrow builds, providing adjustable point-weight options for fine-tuning finished arrow performance.

• SS Break-Off Point: 80–100 Grain
• SS Break-Off Point: 120–140 Grain

Break-off construction allows the point weight to be adjusted to help tune finished arrow weight and dynamic spine for a particular bow setup.

Target points are optional and are not included with this 12-pack.

Optional 12-Grain Pin Bushing

A 12-grain Victory pin bushing is available for archers who prefer a pin-nock configuration.

The pin-bushing system provides another rear-component option for building and tuning a competition arrow while helping protect the rear of the carbon shaft.

Pin bushings are optional and sold separately.

Optional 3-Grain Pin Nock

Victory also offers a lightweight 3-grain pin nock for use with the appropriate pin-bushing system.

This gives competitive archers another option for adjusting and fine-tuning the rear component configuration of their finished target arrows.

Build Your Competition Arrows Your Way

These VAP Target 12-packs are supplied as unfletched shafts, giving competitive archers complete control over the finished arrow.

Choose your preferred shaft length, vane or fletching system, vane orientation, point weight and rear components to create an arrow specifically tuned to your bow and shooting discipline.

This flexibility makes the VAP Target an excellent platform for archers who want to carefully build, tune and match their competition arrows rather than use a fixed factory configuration.
