I am not sure what it is with the new bow. I dont know the weight on the string or the weight of my blazers.

Below are very close estimates....if you had them all you might be off +/- 10 grains ___________________ 7 for nock 15 for blazers 7 for a brass nocking point 15 for a peep 30 for a peep tube 3 for a tied in nocking point 20 for each silencer 15 for insert |

That's a very good calculator and as long as you have the IBO rating , arrow weight per. inch , bow weight and arrow length .... it's gonna be within a few feet a second unless you really blew something.

By my chrono I avg 290, had a few arrows over 300 but not on a consistant basis. Not sure if it was me & my bow coming together or the Az sun causing my chrono to have a heat stroke.

Actual IBO for my Iron Mace is 328fps at 70lbs, 30" draw with a 350gr arrow. That is with a peep installed.
In a couple of weeks I'm going to bait up some hogs and try several different broadheads. Speeds should vary between 280 fps to 360 fps.
Unless those results change my mind, I'll probably end up with a 300 gr arrow going around 340 fps.

292fps. I have a naked string except for a loop and my bow is rated at 321 with an IBO weighted arrow. The arrows I use for hunting are 455gr.  |

270 fps for me.
