I think you should have a look at AMO - it is something like 26.5 to the button which is about 28" to the far side of the bow.

Stylist limbs are marked 28" to the button - I'd need to check but they might also be adjust down (~3lbs)

Sorry - was this intended at me?

I do own a pair of very old Hoyt fit Border glass limbs. I also have a hankering for a Mirage or Victor if I should ever see one secondhand. Unfortunately my experience of XP Evolutions wasn't good (and was very expensive!) I've documented this a lot elsewhere.

Maybe one day I'm make it down and try *shop local* again. But once bitten...

Cheers
