The Revolution AVi does meet the expectations
!!
* arrows marked with asterisk are
shorter than manufacturer's recommended length
(22") we used them for performance
evaluation only, under controlled shooting
conditions.
NEVER use
a shorter and/or lighter than recommended arrow
as it will void warranty and may cause injury.
The results shown here under the column
MY07 are not taken from our previous review but
are new measurements as it seemed more
interesting and fair to compare the two models
with the exactly the same arrow, point and under
identical climatic conditions. Velocities in FPS
read using Beta Chrony chronograph, measured 1
meter from arrow tip, measurements taken indoor.
