I have shot Rage 3-blades for the past several years and I have loved them. The accurracy truely is comparative to field points. I only practice with the practice tips that they provide and I see no change from range to field.
In my experience these are as advertised, strong, durable, accurate, and great penetration. The hits are devastating and usually result in a quick kill and easy tracking jobs.
However, one of our team members, Adam, is thinking of switching back to fixed-blades after he hit a buck in the shoulder last year with very little penetration. So its a matter of experience and personal preference.
The ulcer edge!!! i have shoot 2 different deer species, a butt load of texas hogs and a javlina with them and have never had a problem. Some will argue about penetration but I have only not gotten 2 pass throughs and both where slight quartering away shots that hit the shoulder blade on the opposite side. I even had a pass through on a nearly 300 pound boar.But if your muzzy's fly, don't fix what aint broken (i know some faster bows can have problems getting muzzy's to group).
I used Rages for a little while. The problem I had was that they popped open as I walked through the timber and I had to keep checking them. They snagged on brush easily. There was no accuracy advantage for me but I only shoot to a maximum of about 30 yards or so. My Muzzy fixed blades have always been great and I count on them.

Of the three heads mentioned I would shoot the Muzzy 100 grain. Take this advice for what it's worth but I've shot a lot of critters over the years.
the rage will works great when it stays closed and you do not hit a shoulder blade
but the rage broadhead has messed up too many times for me. this year i think i am going to use nap killzone

Muzzy. 100% reliable and deadly. Archery has enough things that can go wrong. Why add your broadheads to the list?
i had the same problem as DakotaMan
Rage Broadheads!!!
