Winmau Firestorm Steel Tip Darts vs Red Dragon Amberjack 90% Steel Tip Darts
Both are 90% tungsten steel tip darts with 50.8 mm barrels and 7.2 mm max width, so they are closer than the branding suggests. The Firestorm is the more aggressive dart: full-length milled grooves rated 5 for grip, a parallel barrel and a center balance that suits players who like to feel the barrel in every finger. The Amberjack 24g uses ringed and knurled grip on a tapered nose, which is more forgiving for beginners and players with a lighter, softer throw. Owners rate the Firestorm very highly, and Red Dragon's Amberjack line is a long-standing favorite for value and durability.
- Choose the Winmau Firestorm if you want maximum grip along the whole barrel and a center-balanced, parallel dart for a firm, consistent throw.
- Choose the Red Dragon Amberjack if you want a tapered, ringed-and-knurled barrel that is easier to release and suits newer players or a softer grip.
