Elk/Whitetail Arrow

[Bulldog2nine]

Fellas,

I recently got a new to me Monster chill 60-70, set at 70. I have a 30 inch draw. I need to change my 400 arrows out for something stiffer. My question is the below set up ideal? I really don't want to change set up from Elk back to deer either.

Beman ICS Classic Hunters cut to 28 3/4 in 300
Broad head 125 muzzy or 100 magnus stinger not sure yet.

what say you guys?

The arrow you describe is more than adequate for elk, with either weight broadhead.

Thanks Roadrunner, running the 125 muzzy would put me around 440 grains

Plenty heavy, especially with your draw length.

340 Easton axis with 100gr muzzys have slayed a few thousand elk, and make a better deer arrow than the 300s

Not to high jack this thread, but I just acquired the same bow as bulldog2nine. The only difference is I have a much shorter draw at 27.5" with the shorter draw would that change any recommendations? I mostly spot and stalk mule deer and elk.

Bulldog I would get more weight on your arrow you will shoot pretty fast at 30" and 440 grains with that bow set at 70. I would try to get under 300 fps for sure and ideally 280-290 fps and you will be much happier with fixed blade flight.

I have had fixed blades on the money up to 325 fps with my specs and zero issues.
Personally, I don't see an issue at all with the selection your looking at.

Arrow is still plenty heavy for 27.5" DL.
