Default Z7 hunting speeds

I am considering trading in the Switchback xt for the Z7. I was wondering what kind of speed you all are getting from your set up.

My set up would be 30"draw, 417gn arrow. 70pounds. Any ideas what I would be getting?

I am also considering a reezen.

Thanks
WV

I have the Z7, but not sure of the speed. Its faster than my LX. I like it better than the Reezen.

I would guess with your setup you'll be right around 300fps.

That was my guess as well.. My buddy just got one and he has a 29" draw at 70# and is getting some where in the 290's
