RE: Anyone had the Buckmaster G2 chronied?
Have a friend that has one and we chronoed his at 238 fps the bow was maxed at 70lbs and a 29" draw not for sure on the arrow weight but the arrow was a 28.5" Blackhawk camo Vapor with a 100gr field tip so I am guessing the weight to be around 400gr.

That was probably my only beef with the G2 I owned a few years back. It was easy to tune, very quiet to shoot and accurate in my hands but the speed rating was way off what I was getting out of the bow. At a 30.5 inch draw length and a 70 pound draw weight with a 350 grain arrow (bare string) I think I was pushing 302 fps while the bow was advertised at 309 fps. With an extra half inch of draw I should have been shooting around 314 not 302.
But, like I said, the rest of the shooting experience was very pleasurable.

Chronied mine the other day and it read 245fpS (63LBS). Of course after that it went of the scale readign as high as 955fps 
So notsure how accurate this is.

My old G2, set at 67# draw weight, 29" draw length, shooting 28" CX200's weighing 386 grains was averaging 268fps. That was with a D-Loop, peep and leaches on the string. That was plenty fast enough to harvest several deer plus the bow was pretty quiet.
