I'm shooting 70# 28" draw 400 grain arrow, peep site (no tube), string loop and a Trophy Taker rest. Shooting 279 fps. 29" draw would give you another 8-10 FPS but of course your arrow is heavier.

I would guess somewhere around 260 fps based on the information you provided.

oneidaeagle,

PSE F-18 sight
GKF Golden Premier rest
Sims Modular stabilizer
Sims Ultra limbsavers
Hush kit
Sims Cable rod dampener
PSE NV system

I am shooting the bow at a 65 pound draw weight, 30.5 inch draw length with a 430 grain Beman ICS 340 carbon. This combo is yielding 270-271 feet per second and roughly 70 foot pounds of KE.
