IMO the calculator can be manipulated to get the answer you want. I know because I have done it. I would rather trust the older Easton charts if they can be found with the later sizes like 2213. I used 2213 from my 55# bows for awhile back in the 90's. So did a few of my shooting friends. I stepped up in weight and went to 2020's

I cut with tubing cutter 1/8" long and sand down to size on a disc sander with a 90 degree fence. It eliminates the crimp. I shoot 2213 out of a 45# bow, 30.5"L and 125 gr head.

Tubing cutter works fine, just try to cut it off in 3 spins. Use the tang of a file to ream the burr off and file the end flat. Its worked fine for years, so it must be the wrong way   :D
