What would be better to go with,

A set up that yields 250fps with 415 grain arrow (ke 58lbs) or

A set up that yields 256fps with 390 grain arrow..(ke 57lbs)
(carbon arrows)


I am looking for any and all comments...Thank you

For hunting whitetail deer sized animals, you would be very hard pressed to find any difference.

RE: Just Wondering
 

With that little difference, pick the arrows that shoot most accurately for you.

RE: Just Wondering
 

Not enough difference to worry about. Especially the speed. I dropped 40 grains on my 3-D arrows thinking that 8 fps would make a huge diffence. It only made a 1 in difference at 50 yrds. The rest of my pin gaps stayed the same. Like Arthur P said. Go with the one that shoots the best.

I agree not a heck of a lot of difference here.I don't think it would really matter a whole lot.

Thanks for the replies guys...I agree there isnt a whole lot of difference, i was just curious..

RE: Just Wondering
 

Just to give the momentum guys a plug...have you checked the momentum of each arrow against the other? There is not that big of a difference in weight or speed but maybe more of a significant margin with momentum.

I would probably go with the heavier one...just to be on the safe side.

RE: Just Wondering
 

Are both arrows carbon ? Or just the lighter one ?

If the heavier of the two is an aluminum (seems light for alum.).....it's probably a fat shaft with a thin wall ! If that's the case ....I'd opt. for the carbon arrows = the smaller diameter shaft would give you better penetration and durability IMO (if that's the case) !!
