IBO is on the web page, don't know off hand. According to the BC, my 29.5" and 60# OG shot at 305 fps with a 300 gr arrow and weight measured at 60.4#'s. With that kind of performance out of a 7+" brace height bow, pulling 60, I am very happy.

My Old Glory at 29" pulling 70.8lbs with a 350 grain arrow was shot at 308fps.

Funny You should ask Neuman1, I just went and shot my bow through a crono tonight and with a 368 grain arrow (this is with 27 1/4" arrow with arrowwrap and 3-4" feathers) I got 294fps (I enven accidentally slapped my arm on this shot too) and with a 374 grain arrow, same arrow setup except Bohning Blazer vanes I got 292fps. By the way I am pulling 70.8 lbs at 29" draw. And all I've added to the string besides the factory hush kit is a kisser, string loop and fletcher peep site. These are just about the exact speeds I expected to get when I did the factoring of speed on paper.

I hope you had a 100gr head screwed into those 268 and 274gr arrows.
