grain arrow/bolt
iam shooting a carbon express croosbow with 175 draw.what grain bolt/arrow should i use.n what size broadhead.iam using 100 grain muzzys.grain of my arrrow i dont know they came with bow

I like the high F.O.C. (front of center) arrows. With the brass inserts. I believe 110gr. But I shoot 100gr. mechanicals. May also work well with the lighter 100gr. fixed blades. The 125gr. may also group better as it will raise the FOC of the arrow by 25gr. I shoot the GT Lazer II's with the higher f.o.c. brass insert and aluminum caps vs. aluminum inserts w/ plastic caps. You could also try out the 150gr Boltcutters. Someone else should chime in here.

You'll find a cheap digital scale invaluable w/ xbows. Google mfgr of your bow and find listed min weight arrows.
Imho, 110 gr brass insert and 150 gr Boltcutter passes the point of no benefit in FOC. My 20" Gt's, Blazers, brass insert, and 100 gr points come in at about 18% FOC, about 400 gr. I shoot a recurve, that weight is below min for some compound xbows. |

Boltcutter BH's if using the aluminum inserts. Sorry about the confusion there. Thanks for pointing that Awshucks. |
