There's no guessing with a stock bow, excal had did their testing before the bow hit the market, what's advertized is what speed it will do with the stock components.....

Don't forget to get the rated 305fps for the axiom you would use the following:
"Arrow speeds obtained using 350 grain arrow and optional 1989 Flemish Dyna Flight String."
This info is in the spec's for an axiom under "Axiom SMF" at the top left on this page.
Enjoy your new excal,
