Ok, Update I have been able to get 286 FPS out of my CyberTec This is How and Why.

My versa Cam is set to Cam Position C and stop peg 3

If H = 30&quot; then Cam Position C = 27 1/2 &quot; Stop Pin 3 = 80% let off

But in my frustration I moved the stop pin from postion 3 to 4. My owners manual says that will lengthen my draw 3/16 of a inch. this is how I hit 286fps. I looked on there chart and position C and pin 4 is not there but it works and 6 fps faster even.

So the Final numbers are

Draw = 27.7&quot; Weight = 71lbs Arrow = 358gr Speed= 286Fps.

I am assuming this is your true long length? Measured to the pivot point of the handle.
If so then the speed you're getting is exactly what &quot;The Archery Program&quot; predicted.


MQ1Shooter-
I would say that better than 90% of the published specs that manufactures publish are accurate. I believe that I am qualified to answer this based on my experience actually testing bows during the development of my software. When it comes to the Big Boys like Hoyt, PSE, Martin and Mathews I would say that their specs approach &gt;95% accauracy. It seems like the smaller companies actually bring the average down a tad with fudged figures maybe hoping to sell a few more bows.
