I have been running the 82 through some paces (I have the right draw mods for it& on the 101 I am waiting for mods) At 20 yards my groups for me are excellent. Any difference from the groups I shot with the Allegiance? Not that I can tell!!
I haven't tried the longer ranges but that will come as I walk back tune it. Noise wise and shock wise it is a very tame bow for the speeds it is generating. It again IMO does notcompare tothe Guardian or General in that area.I decided to set it at 28" draw because being a hair short IMO allows me still to get off a good shot when things are less than perfect (Steep uphill, steep downhill, twisted in a Treestand, etc.) and I am a hunter first and foremost. My Allegiance at60# 28"shot my CX Maximas at 296 fps, 301 fps at 28.5" where I shot it the most.
The Airborne 82 at60# 28"shoots the same CX Maxima at 308 fps That figures out to 68.69 pounds of KE out of a 60# bow
I'm not going to get all Mushy
but I like and honestly I am looking forward to shooting the 101 and the 82 side by side.
