'dog, the 1918 is slightly weaker than a 2016, perhaps about 3#s, and about 33gr heavier.  It works for me when I'm shooting 2016's; very small diameter.  Hope this helps...........Shick

The 1918 is one of my favorites for bows in the 48-52# range.  I do not know the GPI, however, a 29" arrow with 125 gr. point weighs 495-500 gr.  

They are a small diameter shaft with great durability...but unfortunately, too many archers have already figured this out.

I have a good supply I'm keeping, so if you find some, better jump on it.

1918s are 12 grains per inch. I have a few dozen stashed myself and grab them whenever I come across some long enough for me.
