Default 467 gr/260 f/s how about you

I got my "new" used bow rigged out on Monday. My Matthews fx is now shooting a 467 gr arrow flying 260 feet/second. That should get the job done! I was very impressed with this because my last bow only shot about 228 f/s with a lighter arrow. I am in hog heaven right now. I can't wait until hunting season to try it out. I may get a chance at hog hunting before then.

What grain and speed do you have?

560 gn arrow at 220 fps. Slow by today's standards, but a heckuva lot faster than my longbows and recurves.
