I have been shooting GT 3555 with 50 gr inserts 125gr points. Is there  a different carbon shaft that will be comparable to that maybe a tad heavier in weight?

I might add that they are cut 29 BOP I'm shooting them out of a Bob Lee 46# @ 28 drawing around 27

I'm pretty sure that the CE Heritage 150 is a .487 deflection, while the 3555 is a .500. Weighs 10 gpi, too...

Yes, the CX150 heritiage cut 29" will weight 350 grains with the regular insert where as the GT3555 only weights 250 grains with regular insert( no points on either arrow}. I then use a 125 grain BH with 75 grain steel insert and the CX150 comes out at 550 grains. You adjust the weight of the BH insert for what weight you want to end up with. The spine on both are about the same and I cannot tell the difference in shooting. The CX shaft is tougher with 7 layer wrap where the GT has 5. This is what I heard. Good shooting! Ken

Carbon Express Heritage 90 or 150.
The 150 is 10 gr/inch, over 32" long full length.
The 90 is 9.4 gr/inch but is only 29" long.
