Micro 335 Gen 2 speed test

[wsisk]

Im shooting quills 375 grain.What kind of speed should this combo acheive

My micro is a gen 2 with stock string.

There is guy on youtube that got 360fps with quill arrows with gen 1 .....Quills weight 401 grs with 150 gr points...

Sproul what do you know ...

my mico 335 with quills and 125 gr head (375 total ) clocked at 328 with stock string.

[bob watkins]

mine with taps 375gr 100gr head 333

They all shoot fast enough to kill deer reliably with well placed shots. That's what's really important.

You should understand that not all the bows shoot the same speed. Meaning, two micro 355's, side by side, could be shooting 360fps and 345fps. That being said, the rough guess is to subtract 1fps for every 3gr heavier than 350gr (which is the arrow weight Excalibur uses to rate for advertised speeds). So, your 375gr arrow is 25gr heavier than 350gr which should equal about 8fps of speed loss.

Thanks to all that replied. I was just wondering what the speed was using more than the 350gr.used to acheive 335fps.

Wsisk,

You may want to specify which generation Micro 335 your inquiring about as they can very some.... The first generation made prior to 2016 with it's forward swept riser is considered by many to be an "over acheiver", often comming in above 335 fps with a 350 gn test arrow....

The newer 2016 model has a swept back riser and 1/2" longer rail to help recover the speed loss that would otherwise result if the rail was left the same length as the 2015 models. This new model does exhibit less stress on the limbs in attempting to reduce any reliability issues. This one may not give you the speeds the first model does... My new gen II was put thru the crono at Excal by Mike in C/S and gives an honest 335.4 and 335.6 when he tested them on their equipment.

Could someone please post a picture of a Gen 1 riser compared to a Gen 2. I bought two micro 335's this past September 2016 brand new, but I am not sure what Gen risers I have on these bows. Thanks

You will find this forum to be stacked with info, you just have to spend some time and search for it. Here is exactly what you are looking for.

The difference is very small and both are actually swept back. The first production risers are a three degree swept back and the current production run is a six degree swept back with extra mainframe length as Gene said.
