Target Exo 02 Steel Tip Darts vs Mission Zero Steel Tip Darts

Buy the Mission Zero if you want maximum tungsten density and a torpedo barrel with grip at both ends. Buy the Target Exo 02 if you want a slimmer straight barrel and tool-free Swiss Point repointing. The Exo 02 has a 90% tungsten barrel at 6.65mm diameter and 50.5mm length, with a tapered front and radial grooves; owners rate grip and looks highly but a few call it light. The Mission Zero is 97.5% tungsten with a bronze PVD finish and dual micro-grip zones; owners praise the grip and balance but several complain the Sabre stems grip flights too tightly.

  • Choose the Target Exo 02 if you prefer a slim straight barrel, a tapered nose, and Swiss Point so you can swap points with the included tool instead of a repointing clamp.
  • Choose the Mission Zero if you want the denser 97.5% tungsten barrel, a torpedo shape, and micro grip at both the front and rear of the barrel.

Questions and answers

Which is better for a rear gripper?
The Mission Zero. Its rear micro-grip section with radial grooves gives rear grippers a defined hold. The Exo 02's ringed grip runs along the barrel but is less pronounced at the back.
Which barrel lasts longer?
Both are tungsten and wear slowly. The Mission's 97.5% tungsten is denser and more wear-resistant, but its bronze PVD coating can scuff at contact points. The Exo 02's natural finish shows wear less.
Is the Mission Zero worth stepping up to from the Exo 02?
If you want a denser barrel and grip at both ends, yes. If you value Swiss Point repointing and a slimmer straight barrel, stay with the Exo 02.
Can I change the points on either dart?
Only on the Exo 02. Swiss Point lets you swap points with the supplied tool. The Mission Zero has a fixed black steel point that needs a repointing tool.
Which suits a beginner?
The Exo 02's straight barrel and moderate grip are easier to adapt to. The Mission Zero's torpedo shape and strong micro grip reward a consistent throw more than they forgive a loose one.
Do the Mission Zero stems cause problems?
Some owners say the Sabre stems grip flights so tightly that inserting them is difficult. The Exo 02's Pro Grip stems drew no such complaints.
