I get around 245 w/ OT2, which is probably close if you are shooting mid 60's in weight. I plugged 65#'s in for a draw-weight, and based it off of 29."

More info yields more specific responses.

RE: Knetic ?

If those numbers you posted are correct and you use the same chrono... ten bucks says you are shooting within 2 fps of 235. IfI had to pick a numberI would say 236.
