    That is a very fine set up. Looks like a great combo and upgrades. Nice looking bow and scope.

    Meh, my new to me Exocet 200 will to 375fps with a fastflight string and 350gr bolt combo. 350fps with the 400gr bolt and 150gr boltcutter on the front. Not so bad for "Old tech". Wider and bigger but not really an issue in a tree stand

    Maybe it is on steriods. Even with an upgraded string you would be lucky to push 325 with 100 grain head.

    Don't know what it is about it. Took it to "The Bow Shop" after I bought it and added the Fast Flight Flemish twist string and it chrono'd there at 375fps with a 350gr bolt total wt. Changed out to a 150gr point and it was at 350fps with a 400gr total bolt wt. Dialed the scope to 350fps setting and its bang on for the hash marks out to 50 yards. I could likely get George to witness an affidavit if you'd like.
    The fast flight string is supposed to add 25-30fps. Must have some extra snap in addition to that.

    That is impressive.

    A 330fps factory bow shooting faster than most new Matrix 380 bows. That is a keeper...

    Took my one bow in to the bow shop about a month ago to see if my chrono was accurate , they told me I could try it ( their chrono ) but said theirs is broken and show's everything faster than what it should be as for the scope setting's their usually close some better than other's but seldom dead on.

    Haha! well that might explain it. It was last fall that I was there. Will have to go back when they have it fixed or a new one. The guy who chronoed it didn't think it was unusual. I thought it was pretty fast for what I was expecting
