I used them as a stop gap before I got my Hickory arrows for an 83# selfbow, cant say as I was impressed with them.  Seems like a lot of money for what quite possibly will break on the first animal you shoot with it. They are just an arrow in my opinion.
Hunt fair, hunt hard, no regrets.

Shot them for the first time last Sunday and they shot great!  Used Stu's caculator for the specs and it was spot on.   Normally shoot Beman MFX Classics, not any more.

I don't find the FMJ in Stu's drop down list for arrows. Is it just the Axis?

Thanks

Yep, that pretty much says it.  They are GREAT shafts.  I'm shooting 340's out of my 50# ILF setups and they fly like darts and hit HARD!  I've also got a couple dozen Dangerous Game FMJ 250's full length and weighted for a total of 860 grains, and they come out of the bow great.  Once you try 'em you'll be hooked!

Thanks for all the help. I'm going with the 500's. I will be back on here when they come in asking more ? I'm sure. Thanks for the deal Tom.
