really like to go out and shoot today but the temp is -11.8 deg with a -41.3 below wind chill....Iam going to put a 9vin the new chrono I just bout and check fps, but Ineed to find the wifes digital food scale so I can weigh the arrows 1st....
It would be nice if I had some usefull info to post once in awhile[&o]...
Did you get a new scale with your reloading stuff? I just got my RCBS scale and have weighed everything that will fit on it! Well at least most everything!! You using the food scale for powder?

Ya just the balance one 5 0 5....I like to have a dig,found the wifes but only set to grams,arrow is 26g.hehehe......might just make something to hold the arrow on the 5 0 5...
Set up the chrono and with the Boo string w/catwhiskers Iam shooting 303 with string on line,with string about 3/8 below line it shot 305.....
Chrono wouldnt work in one part of basement but the set it in the Bar and shoot 12yrds into my room and it works great,will post pic in abit of set up......I think I can get 15yrds out of it
Took 5 more shots with the Vortexand all were 303 with string on line and arrow at 26g,I will keep it as is since its not worth the extra 2fps with it just above middle....GTL II's
The Pro Fusion averaged 303.5 with 5 shots with arrow at 24g.
just shot the 10point Pro Elite arrowwith the Vortex and only got 300...hmmm.....
My average was 309, but I also just found out I was shooting a 400 grain arrow to! Still looking for my lost 30 grains!! I also hit at 268 FPS at forty yards away.

Still havent figured that out [X(].what glue are you useing(as if).....
Just weighed my GT L II wit 4"vain and 100gr Field point and it tips the scale at 408......The Pro Elite comes in at 421 with 4"vain and 100 gr FP......
You have larger vanes, so that makes sense yours would weight a little more, but you too are missing 30 grains!!

What weight spec's are you going off ?.[X(]...
Now that I have a scale and chrono I dont need to go off hearsay because thats what ive done before[:-],granted I dont have any arrow weight charts(yet)so I have to beleave in the scale and what the graph tells me.[X(]...Witch is way better then Ive been doing forso long,now I can post true facts about what I see.....
Kinda like teaching a old dog new tricks,its taken this long(24yrs)just for me to get this fancy.You should of seen me going from alum to carbon arrows,that was tuff [&o]now I wont look back...
I would
