I use 12 strands of B50 for all my vintage Bears
Try a 12 strand endless too.

Using b-50 2 times bow weight /10 so for 50# you would use 10strands and pad to 12 or 14.

I use 14 strands of B50 for bows up to 60#,I use 12 strands for under 50#.I also like to spin up an endless loop string for my dacron bows,just my personal preference.

I use 12 strands of B50 for mine (~60# @30"). The 10 strand strings made me nervous for some reason, but felt good on the bow.
Bjorn, where are the rest of 'em? :D
