Ok, here's my setup,ACS 54#@27"{arrow lgth.}At 10gpi I should be using a 540 gr.arrow.With a trad-only 9.1& Griz 125 w/100gr. adapter=524.Is this close enough?By the way I used the trad-only test kit & the 9.1 bareshafted in the bull w/ the fletchshafts,where as the heavery spined didn't. I don't want to shoot the trads because of the poor reviews, I'm thinking Easton Axis or Carbon Xpress. What would be a close match? opions please

Try the Easton Epics.  I am shooting them and they are flying like bullets and grouping together very nicely.  I have a dozen of the Trad Only shafts in the same spine as the Epics.  Set up identically I consistantly group a lot tighter with the Epics.

I shoot that identical bow and setup acs 54@27.
I shoot the axis they come out at 28" w 100gr insert
and 145 tip at 550gr. They shoot great

I shoot 29" Beman MFX Classic 400's for my 55 lb bows with 100 grain brass insert and 125 grain heads they weigh 557 grains.
I like the small diameter and they are very tough.

CE 250's about 31 1/2 would be a good fit, I have the same set up except one # heavier.
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good
