So the 11 carbon arrows I have for my old Mathews Q2 are PSE Carbon Force Extreme 300. Not even made anymore so I weighed them to see what the grain/inch is. Without points, inserts, nock, vanes (bare shaft) they are 8.06 grains/inch. Using my powder scale and a decent tape measure, it's not hard to do.

I've checked PSE, Carbone Force, Victory, and others to find an exact (enough) match so I could have 18 arrows all the same. Closest I can find in the same 300 spine is about 8.9 gr/inch. For my 27.7" arrows, that's a lot of extra weight compared to my current arrows.

Question: When the arrow maker shows specs for the arrows "grains/inch", that is supposed to be for the bare shaft. Correct?
