Well they are a great bow.  I have a few:

66inch, 53#
66inch, 60#
68inch, 66#
68inch, 80#

I like the longer length bows.  All are rockets - the 80# is unreal!!!

I only shoot heavy wood - various weight BHs.

53#, it likes a carbon express 250 with 50 gr brass insert and 250 grain head.  I cut them 28 1/2 and draw about 27 or so.  I've built out the side plate about 1 1/6 of an inch.

Can't go wrong. I have the 3pc wich I got from the classifieds its 57#@28 and a new model 1pc wich is 60#@28. I shoot the cx heritage out of both 250's and 350's work out of both bows and fly almost the same... great shooters although the finish on the limbs can show scratches so I cover mine with limbskins while hunting. I am careful with them but they show use if they fall over too much. I've stopped leaning them against trees now - I hang them up where possible.

I have a 64" RC riser 47#@28" which I draw to about 29 1/2". I'm shooting victory Vforce HV 350 arrows with 100 gr. brass inserts and 350 gr. points. Awesome bow! Fast, quiet, smooth and amazingly balanced. The only trad bow I've ever had that I can hold with a open grip and it will stay balanced on the web of my hand.

16 in ST Riser
42 @ 28 (My Draw)
Victory V6 500 Arrows 380 grains

I LOVE this bow!! The grip, mass, draw weight, everything about this bow just suits me. I bought the riser off of a member here (daveycrockett)and got a GREAT deal on it, if I hadn't have got the deal then I probably would have never gotten an ACS simply due to the cost. It hurt a bit buying the limbs but I figured if the bow didn't work out for me then I could get most of my money back by selling them. BOY, am I glad I bought it. It is a joy to shoot.
God Bless

Mine is a 12" Grey Actionwood RC riser, 62", 50#@28.  Carbon Wedge, BambooCore.
I'm shooting Axis 400's w/50GR brass hit insert.  4" sheild cut feathers 175Gr point.  Footed w/  1-1/4" long alluminum shafting.

Love this bow, the guys at A&H are awesome to deal with, might be the last bow you buy......DB    :laughing:

I have a 66" A&H ACS 3 pc.  It draws 59# @ my 30" draw.  The 14" riser is Macassar Ebony.  I paid extra for the boo limb cores.

I shoot Easton FMJ 300's 31 3/8" long with 75 grain Easton Brass inserts and 145 grain points or 140 grain Grizzly's with a 75 grain brass adaptor.  3 Rivers is the only place I've found with thin diameter 145 grain scre in target points.

I use 4x3" fletch with a wrap.

I have the 12" riser with 62" limbs. Love it. I have 47 & 49 lb limbs for 3D & hunting. I also have a 2pc version that is also a great bow. I shoot 30" CX 150 with 50 gr insert and 125 broad heads. I have had the 14" riser in 64" and 66" limb lengths. Loved every one of them. I think I have settled on the 62" version on the 12" riser. Good luck with your decision. They are all great bows.

Take care , Randy
