If you want a head that works ALL the time pick something other than a Rage.

I have both. I have used the 2blade range and would recommend them to everyone with one warning: You have to make sure that the blades are seated against the o-ring. As long as they are, you should be good as long as your not shooting through mesh. They leave blood trails a blind man can follow, and help if one was to make a less than perfect shot.
Now I have found that after having them for a while they dont always hold up perfectly, even when buying replacment blades, o-rings ect, they can be troublesome. I would still recomend them though because i feel that the benefits vs cost is adequate (although it would become expensive using them as a 1-time use head).
Now with all that being said, I bought the 2 blade blood runner for last season thinking that I may be able to shoot them through mesh (havent tried yet) and that I wouldnt have to constantly worry about checking to make sure the blades are seated against the o-ring. Unfortunatley I have yet to have the opportunity to run them through an animal yet so i do not know exactly how they will perform. Hopefully I will be able to this year.
Sorry for the long post ive just heard so many bias things out there i wanted to get if off my chest.

One good thing about the bloodrunner is it can't completely fail. Even if it doesn't open it is still a 2 blade BH.

Rage 2 blades have downed everything I have shot with them in the last 2 years within about 40 yards of where they were shot. Going to try Grim Reapers this year too

Tried 2blade and 3 blade blood runners.
rage is much better. Blood runners are load.
If you want the best fix/mechanical mix look at phat head sob
