Exocet total arrow grains

Post by Mighty D »

What is the total grains I should be useing for best results from my
exocet (with carved tips) Currently LeBaron I bought carbon laser arrows and 100 grain G5 tekan braodheads they said my total grains with a 100 gain head is 360 grain. Is this okay, any suggestions??

Also how many FPS should I get with 360 grain.

This was from a previous thread. The weight estimate is accurate, but I can't tell you what speed you should expect with the carved limbed Exocet with combined 360 grain bolts.

I called Excalibur a while back and asked the same question. Excalibur prepacked arrows, plastic fletching, 22 carbon the weight was 257 grains.
2213=279 grains
2216=326 grains
2219=357 grains
2117 (old arrows)=324 grains


Then you just add the weight of your broadhead to the weight of the arrow.
eg. 2213+100 grain broadhead=379 grains
Hope this helps
