    I'm running low on my 2216's, lost another In the weeds yesterday.:mad1: So I guess I'm going to get FMJ's this year Instead of next year. Where you all get yours? I was told I should go with 300 FMJ's. Give me all the Info you can on these- good and bad. I do plan on bare shafting these to find my desired arrow length.

    My draw weight will be anywhere from 60 to 65lbs. My current recurve Is 61lbs and my next one will be somewhere between 60-65lbs so I'm hoping both recurves will be able to shoot the exact same arrows.

    Steve,

    I got mine from Bass Pro. (Ordered online) I probably would have tried to get a better deal, but I had some left over Gift card balance from there. I got the 500's but I think yours will defiantely need to be the 340's or 400's pulling that much weight. They were $109 before shipping for a dozen.:bash: These are the arrows you really hate to lose in the grass. Mine will have white cresting before long.:deer:

    They seem to be tough arrows so far.

    Bobby n Steve.

    To make them easy to find get some of that reflective tape and use for cresting.:hail:

    Guess I am lucky I get all my shafts for cost at the shop I go too:d

    Now you tell me.:bash: :bash:

    I crested all my arrows with white/white/barred vanes/feathers. I could find those fairly easy last year. May have to try the reflective tape though.

    I am shooting my 340s out of my recurve right now. I love em. I originally bought them for my 80lb liberty but I thought what the heck I would leave them a little long and load them way up hvy in the front and see if they werent too stiff, they flying great out of my recurve.

    i paid 119.00 for a dozen.
