Someone knows how to use the speed calculator lol. I'll find the link at my home computer and paste it on this topic. Then you can find your own speeds, no reason to have someone else do it for you.

Heck I chrono'd mine, today. That's pretty simple, too.

Here's how I do it.

309 IBO subtract 14 fps for 7 LBs under 70LBS = 295fps, then subtract 22 fps for 3" less than 30" draw= 274 fps. Then subtract 6 fps for 16 grains over 350 gr arrow= 268 fps, then subtract12 fps ford loop/rubber hose peep = 256 fps. Dude, lose the hose on your peep and you'll bearound 264ish.
