Chronoed a 6.5 Reezen last week- 28" cam (of course they run nearly an inch long) -71 lbs- loop, tie in nock and meta peep- 393 grain arrow @ 298 FPS. Shops 351 gr arrow @ 314 FPS. Cam rotation and specs were on the money

For comparison sake, my old Admiral with meta peep, 28.5" setting (about 28.75 AMO), 71 pounds. meta peep, big loop, brass nock and stock silencers shot the shops 351 grain arrow @ 300 on the nose.

Feel of the draw for the two is pretty similar until you get into the 29 & 30" range, and then the Reezen loads up a bit more at the back end, IME. At my draw length the Admiral may be a touch smoother- hard to say- both cam systems are a PITA to draw if you ask me, and when our 30/70 Omen arrived Friday I told everyone @ the shop they can go you know what themselves The 29/70 was bad enough and I couldn't care less how fast the 30 is (I'm the only person in the shop who doesnt have a health issue/blown out shoulders/tendonitis-so I'm the shop "draw boy" for all the heavy poundage/beastly bows)
