I use the 3555 full lenght shaft with a 100gr brass insert,125gr and 3 white right wing feathers total arrow weight is around 515gr.

They shoot real good out of my TD LB 52lb @27, my RD LB 50lb @ 27" and my straight limb LB 50lb @ 27"

I use em. I have mixed results. Fortunately, I have a bunch of aluminums of various sizes. So when I get a new bow, I will play around with different aluminums, and different points from 125gr to 250gr. When I find one that flys good, I go back to the computer and use Ontarget to find out which length GT's and wieghts work. It usually works out well.

I've used the 5575 Nugent Style with a 67# Bob Lee and had very good results. I use weight tube that were 5 grains per inch, a 50 grain insert, and 200 grain heads. I had FOC around 26% I believe.
