I just want to give you guys a heads-up that some of my Double-X's are starting to come apart 😡  Several have wedges missing on their tails, and half of my test darts are starting to delaminate. And they really don't like my tuned up Cyclones. On the whole, they're behaving a lot like many of the inexpensive Universal Suction Clones I got from Amazon and eBay. (sniffle, sniffle)​ I had such high hopes.

On the other hand, of the first pack of ten RadEagles ever opened, I still have seven. Remarkable, considering how many nooks and crannies there are in the Proving Ground. These seven darts have been put through H E double hockey sticks. Admittedly, I've been intentionally merciless on 'em. All the printing is worn off. They don't fit snugly anymore. There's a little Plumbers Goop on some of the tails. But they still fire pretty darn well. And they perform as well, or better, than the Double-X's which are now just two weeks old.

Bottom line, I think the foam bodies on these Double-X's are comparable to cheap USCs and many FVJs. If they weren't so darn cheap, I'd revise my "buy" recommendation, to a "pass". But at $3.84 per hundred delivered, keep buying 'em boys.
