Is 18 grams too light for soft tip darts?

No. 18 grams is a common soft tip weight and is within the range most electronic boards accept. Players moving from steel tip often find it light at first.

Will these darts work on a bristle (sisal) board?

The soft tips are made for electronic boards. On a sisal board the plastic tips will bend or break quickly, so use steel tip darts there.

What is the difference between 80% and 90% tungsten?

Higher tungsten content lets a barrel be slimmer at the same weight. At 80%, this barrel is 7.41 mm wide, which is thicker than a comparable 90% tungsten dart.

Can I change the shafts and flights?

Yes. The barrels take standard 2BA aluminum or nylon shafts and any slim or standard flights, so you can tune the setup.

Three darts with 80% tungsten barrels, aluminum shafts and slim flights, plus spare 2BA Tufflex II soft tips.

How should I care for the knurled grip?

Wipe the barrels with a dry cloth to clear chalk and skin oils from the knurling. Dirty knurling loses grip and feels slippery.

Our take on the Viper Grim Reaper 80% Tungsten Soft Tip Dart Set, 18 Grams

The Viper Grim Reaper is a soft tip dart set with 80% tungsten barrels, knurled grip and slim high-speed flights. The 18 gram weight and 7.41 mm barrel diameter suit electronic board players who want a thin, stable dart for tighter grouping. Tungsten at this percentage keeps the barrel slim without the bulk of brass darts, and the set includes spare 2BA Tufflex II tips. It is a solid mid-level choice for league and home electronic board play; serious steel tip throwers will want a heavier barrel and a different tip.
