Smitty, If you have a 76'r I am sorry but I can't be of much help.

If you have a Bear Mag TD handle I might be of some help. Pics can be very helpful but string length depends on what handle you have (A, B, or C) and what length limbs you are using (1, 2, or 3's)

Once the blanks are filled in, and its a Mag riser, I can help.

I don't see in the catalogs a riser length, only an overall length. Rough guess from the pictures and using the rubber grip as a gauge- the short riser has about a 3" slot in the window, the long riser would be longer than this.
The short was 60" and the long was 66"

Bear 76 er custom riser is 17 1/4" long the sight window is 4 1/4" long. The longer riser is the Bear 76 er Deluxe with is 23 1/4' long with a 10" sight window. The 76 custom was a 58" AMO and the Deluxe was a 64" AMO the limbs where the same lenght for both bows. Same riser lenghts with biger mounts for the Minutman the Bear Cat risers. Later with out the sight slote for the Hunter take downs and the Formula target bows.
