280fps and 88ft/lbs using 500gr arrow & broadhead combo.  Hoyt Trykon, 70lbs, 31.5" draw.

I shoot a 150gr broadhead (Alaska Bowhunting Supplies - Masai).  The extra weight forward helps stabilize the arrow faster (more accurate) and nothing but full pass thru past several years on Elk, deer, bear!!!
