On the whole I prefer 4" parabolics for target work. I fletch them straight with offset- I find this a bit more forgiving on longer shots where 5" helical fletches can drop a bit faster than I like. The 4" feathers still straighten arrows out plenty quick for hole shots.

I did play with 4x3" feathers for a while, and it worked well enough, but I'm back to 3 fletch. The 4 fletch worked as well as 3 fletch, but with the added hassle of an extra feather.
