G5 Meta Peep didn't help.
I put a G5 meta peep on my Black Ice expecting to gain a couple fps.
G5 says it wieghs 6 grains.. Well it does. After running it through the chrono. I was confused. No gain in speed, at all Then I weighed the 1/4 fletcher tru-peep I took of the string. It weighs 10 grains. |

Hehe.
I switched mine because of the blue color. I didn't care whether it will increase the speed or not. I don't think couple grains will make a deer sleepy sooner. :D |
RE: G5 Meta Peep didn't help.
I just recently had one put on my Bowtech Tribute and I really like it. I am having a 3/16" one put on my new Whisper Creek Sweet Demise. It seems that with the overall thinness of the peep the 1/4" seems overly large.

Couple of feet? You mean like going from 287-289.:D
I don't think their claim said from which peep you were switching. ArthurP once told me how much each grain changes speed. It was much more than what you have. Can't remember. |

If you want to gain some speed on your Black Ice then get a floating yoke cable and string from gibblet, put them on as well as the CSS from Meanv over on AT.
Before I changed mine out I was getting 264fps with the change I am now shooting 274fps thats in target mode with a Speciality Archery Hooded ball peep with a #2 clarifier which weighs around 15 to 20 grains nothing else on the string apart from a string loop, bow weight 60lb 28" draw with 316gr arrows and the bow is whisper quite;) |

I ordered a String Suppressor from meanV already.
I just got Vapor Trail string and cable. I'll let you know how it works. |

I put a meta peep on my vucan and didn't gain squat, If they wouldn't have bragged it up I wouldn't have bought one. I am a sucker for gimmicks. $11.50 for 6 grs. of peep. thats around $4000.00 per pound, ha ha you got to love it.

Funny I spotted this thread... Just today I read in the latest issue of Bowhunting World that a person could gain around 6 fps by changing to a Metapeep... I called "bogus" as soon as I read it. :)

RE: G5 Meta Peep didn't help.
I am switching to the G5 as well. I am not looking for speed....I just like the color.
