Is 27g too heavy for a beginner?

It is on the heavy side. Most beginners start around 20–24g, so try a lighter dart first unless you already know you like a heavier throw.

Does the rear weighting suit my grip?

It suits players who grip toward the back of the barrel and throw with a steady arc. Front-grip throwers usually prefer a front-weighted dart.

What comes in the box?

Three 90% tungsten barrels with Eagle Claw shafts, Viking Drakkar flights and steel points already fitted.

Can I change the points?

Yes. The steel points are replaceable with standard steel tip points if you have a repointing tool.

How does it compare with the rest of the Shot Viking range?

The Rannsaka is the heavier, rear-weighted option. Other Viking models run lighter and more front-balanced, so pick by weight and balance first.

What flights and shafts fit it?

It uses standard No. 6 flights and in-between shafts, so common aftermarket flights and shafts fit.

Our take on the Shot Viking Rannsaka 90% Steel Tip Darts

The Shot Viking Rannsaka is a 27g steel tip dart in 90% tungsten, built rear-weighted with a 7.7mm barrel that runs 52mm long. The Siege grip (rated 3/5) uses a shark-fin pattern along the barrel, and the PCT deep blue coating gives it the Viking range look. It suits players who like a heavier dart and a rear balance point, with a grip that holds without shredding fingers. Against lighter 21–24g tungsten darts it trades speed for stability, and the rear weighting makes it a different feel from front-weighted rivals.
