Mine is @ 45# at 26in. 51,at 28. Mine shoots a Beaman 500 cut to 28 1/2in with a 175 tip. Bare shafts out to 30 yards perfectley. You will love the smoothness of the draw. It will feel like a 40# bow instead of 43. I am super happy with mine.

58" Shrew Scout 49lb @ my 26.5" draw. Shooting Carbon Express 150's cut to 28" with 175 tip. I love this bow, but it is the most finnicky bow in my stable as far as spine goes. Had to work hard at bareshafting to get it right. Eventually going to shoot only wood out of it. I have shot some wood out of it already and it seems to be right at home slingin woodies.

My 56" Classic Hunter probably would be somewhere at that weight, bit I have this little problem of pulling it to 32"....
These bows tend to like a stiffer arrow, and carbons are more sensative to cutting, so you are likely in a good spot to play with the new Heratige 90's at your draw. You also could get into the e-foc craze and use 150's with a fairly substantial tip weight.

56" Super Shrew Deluxe, 47# @ 27", CX 150's cut to 29.5" w/145 grn field tips--like darts!
Same bow, Same shafts, cut to 28.5 w/190 grn tips--like darts!
Same bow, GT 33/55's cut to 30" w/145 grn tips, a little weak.

My wife is shooting her DAS this year at 42# @ 26". She had been shooting 28"Beman 500's @28" with 200 grains up front. I was concerned that dropping her bow weight would require new arrows.....they shoot perfect.

Just the right poundage for me a Shrew Classic Hunter 45# @ 29", but the only way I could have one is if it fell out of my P.O. Box
It takes over a year to get one, and a guy I could save up in that time.
And from what everybody says, they must be worth it ! Because I hear good things about the bows.
