Has anyone shot the General through a chronograph? Just curious as to what type of speed a guys looking at with various draw weights, arrow weights, etc.

JoshKeller had his chrono'd. Its in the bowhunting forum somewhere. I think it was 301 with a 375 grain arrow. 70# 30" draw

JoshKeller

30" draw, 71.1 lbs, 388 grain arrow, smooth mod (originally posted fast mod, its got an S on it, thought it was speed at first), nothing on the string except a g5 peep and a loop. 301 fps average.

Rob/PA Bowyer

70 lbs, 28" draw, 381 grain arrow at 288 fps, and whisper quiet.

I get a chance I'll try to run mine through my Chrono with a couple of different arrows and post the results

Awesome stuff so far guys!! Anyone have numbers inbetween the 50 - 60lb draw weight range?

Ok! Here's the numbers on my General. I did play with the tuning, but it didn't take much. These numbers come from my digital grain scales and my digital Pro Chrono.
60# at 28.5" draw

27" Maxima 250= 326 grains shoots 283 fps giving 57.99# KE

27" FMJ 400= 497 grains shoots 233 fps giving 59.93# KE

I'm satisfied with that
