It depends on more than the arrow weight. Every thing on your string must be taken into account. List all the string accessories you have on it as well. That would help with guessing the speed.

OE,
Just an example but my 02' MM has a birth certificate speed of 308, that's also a 29",69lbs draw, I hunted last year with an arrow weighing about 480, I shot it through a chrono last week and it's shooting 263fps, thats with catwhiskers, loop and 2 tied on nocks. I am going to drop my arrow weight this year to somewhere between 400 and 450, not sure how much I'll gain, I can't remember what they say speed loss/gain is per grain in arrow weight but I'm sure someone on here know's.

With a 480 grain arrow at 70# I would say low 260's or high 250's with your string setup.
