what is the fps with 16 inch aluminum arrows?
1516371
Specs state up to 285 fps, though we never had our clocked. I would assume that is with the aluminum bolts that are included with the crossbow, but I am not sure of that. I personally wouldn't use aluminum bolts in any crossbow, carbon fiber can be had at a price point that makes them very competitive with aluminum, especially when you take carbon fibers durability into consideration. I have taken 3 deer with one carbon fiber bolt, I doubt you could shoot one of the aluminum bolts that are included three times without damaging it beyond the point of reliability.

With a 440+/- grain bolt running at the 240 feet per second this bow delivers you have 54 foot pounds of Kinetic Energy. Most experts recommend 41+ to hunt large game such as bear. It certainly has enough but a more powerful bow would perform even better.

I think they claim 950 fps, but typically that is with alloy pellet. Lead pellets are slower.

What type of games? I play basic FB games, but I really haven't tried anything else. If they're more graphic intense, I would contact the company about how to upgrade. Or see if one of their gaming computers are in your budget. Looks like their lowest priced one isn't currently available on Amazon. Their website: http://aa-comps(DOT)com

For 1st - 4th magazine (16 round) it will probably average in the 300 fps range which nets excellent accuracy. After these firings fps drops off. I continue to fire up to 8 - 10 mags, however and obviously, the fps really drops off.

Nope, doesn't hurt. I'd say only 350+ FPS at close range could make you bleed.

The arrow that comes with the unit is a 31" carbon. Go to wal-mart or similar store and buy a couple of $3 carbon arrows to practice with. You will break or loose at least one before you get the hang of shooting it.

5-800 fps depending on on number of pumps and pellet weight. Plenty fast to hurt things!

I shoot them out of my Gamo Silent Cat which is rated at 1000 fps for lead pellets. I only get 625 fps out of that gun with these 11.6 grain ones but they do a lot of damage to what they hit. But I would not use them in a low powered rifle. I switched to 10.3 grain H&N; Barracuda hollow points for more tissue damage but the Silver Arrow does a good job.

I just got 205 fps. with a 10.5 grain pellet and 2 pumps. It will not shoot a pellet out of the barrel with 1 pump. 2 pumps is .98 fpe.

I have the gas piston version and it runs them out at around 750 fps..my only problem has been the thumb hole synthetic stock which broke...can't wait to finish my new home built stock....its a great and very hard hitting beast.

I bought for use for a crossbow that shoots 410 fps. It doesn't hold up at all for being rated for 400fps. I guess if your shooting in the low 300fps it is a waste of money for you I believe. But if your shooting up to 300fps I guess it will work good for you. It's not worth it's money when considering the standards they set. Do not shoot rage practice tips at it either, it's only made for field points. It also where's extremely quick!!

About 230 feet per second, but that's on a sliding scale depending on how full your co2 is. Fps can be as low as 180, but usually stays in the 200s.

I shoot 345fps, feild tips with hay bailes backing it. Mine drives them within 2.5" of the vaines. Has good grabbing adhesive. But, your gonna need a grabber to first twist the arrow, then pull it back it' a little tuff coming out. I don't think a cross tip would come out unless you finished driving it all the way threw. But, it's better than distroying the vaines. At an average of $6.50 per arrow. I think my cross tips would slice and dice the material in only one warm up season. Hope this helps.

15 inch or longer if you want. I suggest the cheap aluminum ones for target practice just use the tips on them. If your going to use the bow to hunt then I guess I would use the expensive tips and arrows. I just use mine for target shooting unless your Bill Gates you'll go broke hawing the top of the line bolts and heads.

My .177 shoots 1225 fps with light alloy pellets, 1000 fps with 7.0 gr lead pellets. As advertised! It is awesome. This one is advertised to get 950 fps with alloy, and probably 800 fps with light lead pellets. While slower, the pellets weigh about 2X what the .177 do, so it hits harder! I would expect the .22 to be every bit as accurate and awesome as the .177, and either will kill small to medium size game.

The computer does well for Second Life, which is a very demanding game. I have for overca year bow and have been very pleased. it is a real workhorse.
