That's awfully ambitious, I would expect more like 230. The FD curve may suggest less.

Lovely tiller shape. Do keep us updated!

Cameroo:
Thanks guys!

That's kinda what I was thinking - around 230, and that's assuming I can yank it back the entire 32 inches!  Also, I think livery arrows are closer to 1000 grains, aren't they? 

Anyway, I'll be sure to update with it's performance as soon as I can. Who knows, maybe it will surprise us? I have a laser range finder so I'll be able to measure the distance quite precisely.  All of my arrows are around 80 grams (around 1200 grains), so hopefully I can get Adam out with me and use some of his lighter ones.

Badger:
  I was thinking of the lighter around 750 grain arrow, not sure what they call that one. 230 with the 1,000 grain arrow would be a good shot.

Very nice Cam! Looking forward to seeing it next month. Way to go!!
