Any arrow above 350gr. is fine for the M355. 18" arrows between 370 - 420gr. appear to be most popular in the M330 to M380 lineup. You can shoot 20's if you don't mind the tip hanging over the stirrup.

I shoot 20" Black Eagle Executioners .001, 110 gr insert, factory fletched out of my 355 with great results. My arrows weigh around 432gr with a 100gr BH. Great combination as they punch thru all deer! You can order from wyverncreations or Dan Miller.

I shoot Gold Tip Pro III's, with 112 gr. lock n load inserts, Firenocks, 2" Blazers, from Jerry at South Shore. They weigh in at 416 gr. Shoot around 320 fps. I use Exodus Broadheads and I get 3 in. groups at 60 yards.

I shoot 17" Black Eagle Zombie Slayers at 385 total grains with 100 grain heads. i like my broadhead inside my stirrup so i can hang my bow while in the stand.

Congrats on an excellent bow!

Buy a crossbow string changer to adjust your brace height when the string stretches. Where are you located?
