BTW, if my calculations are correct, it would put a 500 grain arrow at 28.5" draw right at 280 fps, producing 87 ft. lbs of KE. There is no about that, just and .
Not hardly!

That's not what he is saying at all. What he is saying, is that if the rep is correct in his findings, that this bow is very, very effecient at heavier poundages. BTW, if my calculations are correct, it would put a 500 grain arrow at 28.5" draw right at 280 fps, producing 87 ft. lbs of KE. There is no [X(] about that, just and .
What you are really saying is that this bow would shoot this 500 grain arrow at 233 FPS if it was set at 70 pounds.
I think I got the quotes right now...and what I said above. I'll stick with my 233 FPS.

My Allegiance set at 62 pounds with a 29 inch DL shoots a 422 grain arrow a touch over 280fps.
I'd be willing to bet mine at 62 pounds 29 DL would shoot a 500 grain arrow mid 250's.
At 70 pounds 29 DL I would bet it would be right around 270fps.

These are impressive numbers I must admit. I'm sure as people start posting their speeds we'll see some good numbers. It's probably just me figuring a loss of performance with shorter draw lengths. It sounds like the alligiance may have very little performance loss at the shorter draw lengths due to the cam design. I just bought a 2004 Extreme VFT and am probably a little jealous of the numbers.[&:]
