Default Broad head regs

I was under the impression that the regs used to state that a broadhead had to have sharp, unserrated edges but looking at them now it just says solid sharp edges. What exactly does that mean? Can we use broadheads like Magnus Buzzcuts?

Yes as long as the cutting diameter meets the minimum requirements.

Yes you can use the buzzcuts but they fall apart pretty easy. Had one disappear in an elk. Just the screw-in thread part left.

Pretty much any 7/8" or wider head that is not barbed like a Schmeisser u r good to go son.

But it has to be sharp and you have to put it where it counts. Cheers.

Description of a barb seems to have changes over the past few years too.
The Tekan G5 was illegal about 7-8 years ago, seems its ok to use now.
Same broadhead, just different interpretation of a barb I guess.
