Title: Bear take down limb fit
Post by: rendalen on March 05, 2013, 10:39:00 AM

Hello
I was wondering about the fit of old limbs on a new riser. Do the old limbs fit on the new riser without any problems ? I am curently shooting a new bubinga handle and was thinking about getting a set of older limbs for it.
Regards Øyvind

Should be no problem.  I have the new bubinga handle too with two sets of "old" Grayling limbs that fit just fine.

Also works the other way. I have been shooting new limbs on old handles.  Fit no problem

Ok thanks.
What is the current cost of a good set of #1 red or white tip limbs in the 40-45 pound range ? Not the new limbs, need to be from the 70`s

A good set will generally cost you $175-250 with the older white tips costing the most.

I concur. I'm currently shooting my 2012 B handle with old white tips I bought off of a lister for 265. Love the set up!
