Whats your sight marks at the longer distances like compaired to the xp10s, bearing in mind there is a slightly better cast from the lighter arrow...?
adjusting centershot with the button wouldn't account for having the grip center in the same line- but otherwise - yeah I guess you could do it that way.



As I've found - at least in my case to bareshaft nicely, I have a higher nocking point than I need for nice groups. adjusting the nock point down for best grouping is something I havent done yet, but really should give me greater cast.
That said my overall arrow weights are 20grains different- the ACE's being the lighter.
At my X10 sightmark for gold at 80yards, the ACE's are right on the top edge of the boss- a bit higher than i would have expected for just 20gn lighter.
BUT this is with the said high nocking point - almost a half inch high - over 3/8's inch anyway...which for all the arrangements I've had before for best grouping...the nock point will have to come down over an eighth at least ( strange I know)

If, as I suspect grouping will be tighter with fletched arrows at a little less than this - then my ACE's will almost make 100yards at my 'old-X10-80yard' sightmark..which would be fantasmal!
I'll know for sure with a bit of reasonable weather come this Sunday.
