Default RE: ibo vs actual speed

ORIGINAL: zak123

I use this formula:

Subtract 10 fpsfor every 1" you are under IBO length.
Subtract 1 fps for every three grains you are over IBO.
Subtract 2 fps for every pound you are from IBO.
Subtract5 fps for a peep site.
Subtract5 fps for a kisser button.
Subtract 4 fps for a string loop.

I used this formula and was off by 1 fps.
Thanks
I Only have a 27.5 in draw and am looking for a bow that the actual speed will be around 275+.
This really helped.
