congrats on an awesome bow, I am shooting a similar setup with my realm X's in 60lb limbs (440gr arrow, 280 FPS, 30.5" draw). Have never shot this well. Bowtech hit it out of the park!

can't wait to get it really dialed in, going to deal with more arrow drop than a lighter arrow, but I think it'll fly super true and punch through      

I can tell you the arrows are a bugger to pull, even though easton claims: "easy pull shaft"  ya right     the big block target rocks when it's hit

They pack a serious punch...I was able to go from 70lbs on my reign 7's to 60lbs in a realm X, same arrow, Lost only 10 FPS. I don't notice the redued brace height like I thought I might. Really great bows. After buying a flagship bow every year since 2016 I am looking forward to hopefully riding the realm X wave for a few years...

Be interesting to see how accurate this is

Congratulations on the new bow. At 30"draw and 70lbs your a gorilla. I believe you would have to stack on too much weight for KE to really matter. Any half decent shot is going to zip right through an elk.

2 kinds of inexpensive arrow lube are bar soap, like the small ones from the Motel, and olive oil on some cotton balls in one of those arrow lube  tubes.

Why did you decide to go with a brass insert and 100 grain bread head? My guess with the extra length of draw and poundage your pulling that 25 gains wouldn't make a lot of difference.

I wanted 12+ FOC because this is a dual purpose bow, I plan to target shoot and hunt it, I was able to get 12+ FOC with a 50 grain brass insert. 

Also I wanted the 100 grain broad head selection availability, there's a lot of 125 grain BH's but there's more 100 grain hanging on store shelves.

Don't laugh, this is the first 40 yard group I shot with this new bow.
