The brace height range is from 6.25" to 7",I like mine set at 6&3/4" and my nock height at 1/2".Shoots best for me,I shoot a 6 strand 450+ on it.

When I was still shooting it mine was at 7" and nock is 3/8 with beman 400's. 7" and 1/2 up on the nock with cedar. Love the Savannah but it's hanging on the wall now, too much #'s for my shoulder.

7" brace height on mine.  My arrow setup is similar to yours, except I use Surewood Shafts Douglas Fir.  

I painted a single line crest at 7", on my otherwise plain arrows, so I can check the brace height easily.

I have mine braced at 6.25 and I shoot the 400 traditional shaft with 160 up front. It is a real shooter.
