Hard to make out the exact numbers in his post, but I'm getting between 323 - 325 fps.

I had you at 324,I think we are good.

He had you at 323 and change.

yeah, $140 a dozen is a little more than I want to spend for a dozen arrows. How are just the plain whitetail series?
They are pricey, but man, I have yet to see a quality arrow that good. I was tuning another mans bow and he had them, and I shot all 12 thru paper, and rotated them 120 degrees and still got the same bullet hole. Rotated again 120degrees again, all 12 perfect.Usually, out of 12 arrows, I find 60-70% that have consistent spine. Thats with beman, carbon express, and others.

But I do understand, as I haven't purchased them either.

Yes, they cost a bit much but(they are only LOL $124.99 at lancaster archery), as bigcountry points out, all 12 arrowswill be good. They are also very, very durable. I have some with over a 1000 shots and the spine has not changed (that I can tell using nock rotation). Unless you are robinhooding or hitting concrete the arrows will last as long as you want them to.

I also have some CT Cheetah Hunters at a .400 spine that I use with a 60# bow and they are just as good quality but a little lighter and cheaper.

These arrows are also made in the USA if that is important.

I have other arrow brands but my hunting arrows will likely always be Carbon Tech unless they change their standards.

Well before spending the money on a whole dozen, I found 6 on archerytalk for $25. If they shoot well from my bow, I'll go ahead and fork up the cash for another dozen. :)

Good Job! Now, keep in mind the XP's have the yellow writing and the non-XP's have the white writing and the difference between them is the straightness tolerance.

That is a heckuva price for 6. Are they already cut to length?
