awesome! i cant' wait for the report on it. looks like a great bow. i sold my Experience after barnsdale started making replacement limbs for the destroyer series, and i could get 80# limbs for my D350. BT would not offer 80# limbs for the experience. i keep wanting to pick up a CPXL and get new carbon core 80# limbs for it, but the upcoming trip to RSA and a move to colorado is killing my toy budget.

To be honest you dont really need a 80# anymore with today's new technology.

But I have hunted a lot with my 80# Tribute before my 350 Destroyer and the RPM.

But I think it was time for a bit of an upgrade.

At 29,5 draw lenght at 80# and a 530-600gr arrow it should be a potent hunting setup.

For the pachyderms a 850-900gr arrow will do...

you're right, its not needed...but i figured, why not while i'm young and strong. at 80#, 30", similar to you, i can shoot a heavy setup pretty fast. right now i have 642gr gold tip kinetic kaos going 274fps. should be plenty for plains game and elk Smiler

the RPM360 is a fine bow. I might be shooting one today instead of my Mathews Wake, if my shop sold them.
