Good post. I just traded a Vectrix XL for an Alphaburner. I have always shot between 65-70 lbs on my bows but the Alphaburner was the last one in stock and I got a deal on it. 29 inch 60 lb model...bottoms out at 59 lb and shoots my 390 grain shaft at 287 with factory strings. 3 inch gropups at 50 yards on the 3rd day of owning it. I love it and cant wait to shoot "at" some deer with it.
