[QUOTE="BoomFlop, post: 2623611, member: 55851"] [USER=121677]@HSmithTX[/USER] I would definitely recommend staying with the .204 size due to the components. Nocks and inserts are much tougher than .166 components. I use to shoot the VAP’s and the arrows were fine, however, inserts and especially nocks would fail too easily for me. I have a short draw length at 25.5” and shoot 78 pounds with a Mathews V3X 29. My shafts are approximately 25” carbon to carbon. 25.5” end of nock to end of carbon. My arrows weigh 424 grains total. I would expect with a more standard draw length/arrow length you would end up around 440-460 grains, which is an excellent arrow weight. Enough arrow weight for forgiving arrow flight, quiet bow shot and penetration while maintaining good arrow speed. Hope this helps! I’ll shoot you a PM as well. Steve [/QUOTE]
