RangeBall-

Here is a pretty good approximation of what you have just by running any old arrow through 'The Archery Program' because we all know now that a bow at a given draw length and weight only stores x amount of energy. I ran 60,65,70 pounds @ 28" draw and a beman ICS 340 for test purposes.

60lbs= 49.7 ft/lbs KE
65lbs= 53.7 ft/lbs KE
70lbs= 57.9 ft/lbs KE

At this draw length and the listed poundage you can expect somewhere real close to these figures no matter the arrow is.

If the bow is actually 29.75(AMO) draw....which it just might be, here is what you can expect.

60lbs= 60.4 ft/lbs
65lbs= 65.6 ft/lbs
70lbs= 70.8 ft/lbs

I hope this has helped your cause....

Happy Shooting!
