Title: Arrow Footing sizes not listed on Charlie Lamb's chart??
Post by: hawk22 on October 26, 2015, 02:54:00 PM: Looking for the aluminum footing size for easton axis traditional 500's and gold tip kinetic hunter 400's. Can't seem to find a straight answer on what sizes I need. Thanks!

Then I go on google and find a chart that lists the ID of the Easton aluminum shafts. I pick the aluminum with the ID that is the closest to the carbon OD without being the same size or under. You'll probably want to be around .005-.010 bigger.

Post by: WESTBROOK on October 27, 2015, 08:55:00 PM: 2020 or 2018 should work on the axis, was a 2018 on the beman mfx 400 & 2020 on the 500's, should be the same for the axis.
