id say 250ish as well. i shoot a bow with a 305ibo. 28 inch draw, 378gr arrows and set at 67lbs and im shooting right around 260fps..i have a loop,nock, peep and leeches on the sting though...though i dont have a biskuit. someone here did a test and said they gained 10-12fps from switching from a biskuit..not sure how true or scientific but it sure does make sense...dont worry about speed...just learn where it shoot and get out there!!
