shot the demo and loved it but was wondering if anyone has shot one with full set up and ran it throw a chronograph? arrow weight and speed would be nice.

Well I cant give arrow weight - but shooting them side by side to the SX-1 same DL and DW and exact same arrow it was only 2 or 3 FPS slower, but oh so much smoother.

Im guessing the smooth mods on the SX and the Rush set up will be the same.

The only one I have heard of came with an IBO of 341 I believe and that did not include what was on the string. Can't remember what the numbers were, but Crackers did one and posted it. . . . seems a little unfair though since he is the master of tuning.

Truth. I want to see some numbers from regular joes... and out of the box, loaded string with a hunting arrow. I'm specifically curious because of the huge IBO windows. Are we to expect high or low IBO? If they're hitting high specs... this bow is a contender for me, for sure. Hate to be so stuck on speed, I just have no issues with my current setup so I don't want to give up what I already have, either :)

Well 2011 the SX-1 hit their specs, and they come in with the DL numbers spot on from what I have seen, witness, experienced and read so thats a bonus.

Their numbers tend to be spot on as some other manufacturers are....and of course others arent :)

I suspect the rush with 80% to be 3-4 fps second slower than the Sx-1.....you also have the option to be at 70% or 80%.

Sure, but its an 8fps IBO window. Are they hitting high or low IBO? Are they hitting that # with a loaded or bare string? Seems like a lot of potential for variation... I'd love to see some real world speeds with a loaded string and hunting weight arrow. Soon enough we'll have some solid #s to go by :)

The two I just got in were coming in about 5-7 fps under what we expected at 28 and 30 inch dl's at 70 lbs... pulled them out of the box and gave them a rest, loop and a basic tune checking dl and dw to meet ATA(IBO)... I'd say it's an average draw cycle for the type of bow it is... the 30" dl has quite a bit of lean on the top cam, the 28 looks fine... one thing that does stand out is the finish work... these bows LOOK really good in hand. So far, they are not quite meeting what they say it'll do from what we've been able to do with them... I'll be able to play with them a bit more tomorrow.
