Did little testing this evening.
Bear Kodiak
45@28
Arrow
#1 FMJ 31 1/2 340 spine
#2 FMJ 30 1/2 599 spine
So which arrow is #1 and which is #2 and what is the arrow telling us. Shot was at 10 yards. Five shots gave the same results.
Left arrow is too weak. Right arrow is too stiff showing falsely?
Forgot to add that the 500 has a 75gr insert and 150 point
340 had the standard 16gr insert and 150gr Point.

Not sure false reading it is showing me. I did expect the 340 to be stiff but it's not flying that way. With fletching it will stiffen some. I am curious to how much I will need to cut off of the 500 to get it flying right. Might need to listen to Bisch and go with 400 spine in the FMJ so that I can keep the length longer on the arrows.
How far did you shoot and what did the shafts do going down range, nock left, right?
If your DL is 28" or less, I think the .400 will be too stiff for sure. I shoot full length .400's at 50#, and they are still just a tad stiff.
Just my two cents worth!
Bisch
People often leave out the most important factor in this sort of picture...were they shot right handed or left handed...I shoot both and often have to remind myself which arrow attitude indicates which
