Arrow shaft size

[Rippinlip]

I am going to get some more arrows and I know what I am buying for brand, but I am on the edge of 250/350 shaft sizes.

I feel I should error on the 350 side, but is there "rule of thumb" out there?

Any advice?

Draw weight 70lbs

Draw Length 26.5"

Difference in arrows are;

Available: 250, 8 gpi; 350, 8.9 gpi.

Diameter: 250-.295"; 350-.297".

the brand you are getting should have a guide online. punch in your numbers and point weight and you should get the answer. good luck.

Thats why I asked, it gives me the choice of both sizes.

Thanks anyways

I was in the same boat as you. Right on the edge. I went with heavier arrows. That way I can up my poundage if I choose. Also thought it night be better suited if I choose to hunt elk. I have been happpy with them. As long as I do my part they go where I aim.

You can never have to heavy of an arrow for hunting ! but if you like to screw around with 3d and long range shots get some lighter arrows . I switch arrows be for hunting season and get an extra 80 grains off nock down

choose one and if it flies fantastic, stick with it. That bow in your avatar looks like it will zip em right thru just about anything.

Check out the Easton full metal jacket 400. If you want a shaft that can do anything this one if for you.

The 250 and 350 are the spine of the arrow. You are much better off being over spined than under if you are right on the edge so I would go with the 350's. I'm in the same boat and went with the stiffer spine.

Thanks for all the replies.

I decided to go with the Carbon Express Blue Streaks in the 350 spline.

Look sweet, will be checking them out at league tonight.
