RE: MERLIN MAX2000 CENTER SHOT?
460, You can use a fat cabon shaft but they will be a little more expensive then aluminum. Though aluminum are straighter then some carbon you'll also get twice the life from a cabon then you will an aluminum. Pinwheel is right when he said to think more on accuracy then line cutting. You have the bow that will give you all the forgiveness and accuracy you can buy so it's just a matter of shoot,shoot and more shooting. I think for your set-up a 2213 will work or a Beman ics 500. There is a lot of good carbon manufactures out there. The closer the straightness and wt tolerences per dozon the more you'll pay. The average shooter won't see a difference between .006 to a .001. I shoot a Carbon Express,3-D Select w/2" feathers for 3-D (cause I'm obcessive)and a 4" feathers for hunting and have no problem with riser contact. The feathers are more forgiving if you do. Hope this helped. JERRY
