For general big game hunting what bolt weight do you prefer? Also, what FPS do you feel is the best balance between lethality, trajectory, bolt wear/stress, and bow wear/stress?
Just today I shot a group with my hunting arrow (426 grains) and a group with a lighter (395 grain) arrow at 30 yards. Even though the lighter arrow was shooting about 15 fps faster, the group was only about an inch higher. Faster can be nice, but the slightly heavier arrow groups better for me.
