As I remember the 1918 spines out the same as a 2016, about 55 lbs. Someone out there knows.

Well I never thought of that angle.  Here's a chart I use sometimes, I  thnk it's the Kellly's one and it does list the old 1918@60lbs

I still have and shoot some old AO 1918's and some green Gamegetter 1918's.Great shaft.

The new black 500's are just a fancy name for the 2016.

Bowmarks - I get 0.441" deflection (26" centres, 2# weight) on my old Gamegetter 1918's.

That equals a hair under 59 pounds. YMMV

The new black 500's should work with a 55-58#@27 longbow??? Shouldn't it???. Need the arrow to be 28-29 inches... Is the length I would like??? This should work out if I play around with the tip weight ??? I hope??
