There's faster bows out there but hell any bow that shoots a "hunting ready arrow/head" 280fps will use the same pin from 10-30yds and I simply won't shoot any further than 30 (35 MAX under absolute perfect, ideal conditions) anyway so I couldn't ask for anymore than that. The XTs biggest allure to me was the utter silence and astounding smooooooothness of the bow. The Hoyt I hunted with before that was nearly 10 yrs old and while equally as fast, it wasn't nearly as light, smooth or quiet as the Matthews. Never say never, but I doubt I'll replace the Matthews anytime soon, it works flawlessly for me.
$300 is a steal, better hurry up b4 someone else finds that seller,
