Carbon express heritage 250's 28.5" 27" draw. 145 grain point or 50 - 55 cedar same specs. They fly good out of my 47 pound bow. I hope the bow comes 2 or 3 pounds heavier.

Sounds like a killer combo! And that is certainly a great price on a bow! :shock:

I haven't scaled either of mine. The 40# shoots 1816,125 gr 30" and 40-42 spine 5/16 birch with 100 gr points 29.5". 55# shots 29.5" 2016 with 150 grain points both at 27-27.5" draw. I shoot one of Dave's strings on both of mine. Haven't tried the stock string. My brace is right around 8". As for quivers, 1 had a selway limb bolt and the other a 4 arrow eagles flight. I prefer the fit and feel of the eagles flight. Selway just seems bulky and hood and grippers feel too close togather.

I will have to get Dave to make me a string. I don't like quivers on my bows.

The bow seems to be in limbo somewhere between Virginia and Michigan. It was sent out on the first, Priority mail. :shock: It just keeps saying in transit.
