Mathews Outback, 28in. draw set at 64lbs.
Easton Axis Obsession 400's w/100 grain tips, total arrow weight of 425 grains
Loop with release aid, Meta Peep with no tube and a kisser button
Qad Ultra Rest LD
I am set up more to be quiet and accurate vs: speed.. I chrono at 244 fps.

You can get all the Ibo ratings for the Mathews bows off their website I think but if I remember right the Outback was just a pinch over 300.

Similiar to badazz and it's not near IBO specs so it really won't help.

Are you serous? I have the same setup except Beeman 400 and 70# @ 286 FPS. No kisser button and a fall away.

tubless peep wheighs around 7 grns and the loop weighs around 4. Really depends on what size the peep is and how long the loop is.

What program are you testing out? Both of the ones I tried required you to drop the effeciency quite a bit to get them accurate. That is why when I try to find an arrow for someone I like to know how fast the bow will shoot a particular arrow. Helps make it a bit more accurate.
