Weight of string accessories?
 
Im using that FPS calculator on backcountrybowhunting.com and was wondering how many grains are usually added to your string when it comes to the accessories? Like how many grains are leaches a piece, a peep sight, loop..etc? Thanks guys.

I've never weighed these things that I remember- leeches, loops, and whatnot. I really only know the weight of tru-peeps (around 8-12 grains depending on size) and the G5 Meta Peeps are roughly half the weight of the fletchers.

I weighed leeches once. If I remember correctly, they were quite heavier than I expected, like somewhere around 30gr a peice.

I don't use string silencers any more. I've found for me they are Not necessary any longer. All I have on my string is a tied in nock set, sometimes a loop, and a Meta Peep.

So I really don't have much weight on my string.:D

Just weighed the BowJax Ultra II string jax (since they were handy:D)

They weighed 38 grains for 2.
