I have both of those bows, 56" Wasp and 52" Nomad Stalker I. Both are braced at 7-1/2". You should find the sweet spot somewhere between 7-1/4" and 8".

Thanks GA,I kinda had both of these handed down to me.I have a widow pma and then got the collecting bug,dont tell anyone but my widow doesnt seem to have all that compared to either of these,they both shoot real nice,I paid an arm and a leg for the "custom" widow and they missed the overall length by 2".I ordered a 60" and got a 58".They made it right with no questions asked but Im a machinist and if someone asked me to machine a part & I was off by 2" Id be lookin for a job...

I found an old take-down wasp the other day with metal riser.  I was wondering if it would be a good bow to pick up also.  I can't find much information on the old wasps.

I have the wasp and it should be between 7 1/2-8" like GaBoy mentioned.
