With a 350 grain arrow you should be around 300-305 with a 29" DL and 70# with a loop and peep on the string. With a 400 grain arrow you will probably be somewhere around 285-290 with the same setup.

We need a little bit more information such as what is your draw length? What draw weight will you shoot it at?

If you were shooting it at a 30" draw at 70 lbs. it's not unreasonable to think you could get those speeds.

Edit: I didn't see your sig. DUH!What Jeremy said.

The Mathews website says you can get 320 on it and my archery guy says you can get more then that out of it. It all depends on how you tune it and what kind of arrowsyou use.

I have a Drenalin and there is NO WAY he will get 320 out of it at 29".... and stay in the warranty

It will get 320 with nothing on the string and a 30" draw at 70#, however he is using a 29" DL and more than likely a loop and peep on the string. I'm sticking with my original estimate.
